It was a wonderful almost summer weekend in Point Reyes, Northern California: it’s so strange that right now there are still places covered with snow.
That heart-shaped patch of shrubs that I saw from the window of the house where we were celebrating our friend’s birthday was just a perfect backdrop for the perfect event. I hope Spring comes soon to everybody who’s waiting for it. Stay warm!
With Love,
Undina

Forecast HERE is for snow later today (Monday). What a lovely postcard from the future! Spring will happen someday here too, I just know it.

Snow all around here, so we will enjoy your ‘almost summer’ vicariously. If it was almost 10C I would be delighted, instead of -1C, apparently! Have fun with your friends. ;-)

I do not mind -1C… for 2-3 days once every 2-3 years. Otherwise, +10C is my perfect winter temperature, I do not need it to be any lower.

Gorgeous photo. Sounds like a lovely weekend.
Thanks for your good wishes to all of us still waiting for Spring. Parts of the UK are under 18ft of snow and more is forecast for Good Friday. It’s nice to know it’s arrived somewhere :)

I searched and searched the photo, every bush, every blade. When I looked up I saw the heart. Now I can’t miss it. A clever and brilliant composition.

Thank you, Jordan!
First I didn’t plan to mention it but then realized that it was not that noticeable until you saw it for the first time. And then, you’re right, you can’t miss it.

Thank you for a card. Looks like you had a good time. There’s still plenty of snow where I live, don’t know if we’ll get some green for Easter but the temperatures are slowly rising so there’s a chance it won’t be white at least.

Egg hunt on the snowed grounds might be a challenge :)

Egg hunt? You mean that Easter tradition? We don’t have it here widely. It is here but it’s not common. I know some kindergartens organize egg hunts for their children.

The shrub made me smile – thanks Undina – as I had been grumbling because another few inches of snow landed on us last night.

Dear Undina
What a lovely card.
And what a lovely heart – strangely like that on a pack of playing cards.
Sunshine ans snow sounds like a not too shabby combination….

Both sunshine and snow isn’t that bad – on its own orin combination – as long as it’s in moderation.

Nice picture, Undina. Considering that we were supposed to get snow the last few days and didn’t…I will count my blessing, specially in these days leading up to Easter.
I have wonderful memories of my grandmother organizing Easter Egg hunts for the grandkids — 20+ screaming kids running all over a landscaped garden with strategically placed ginormous flowerpots and planters taller than some of us – oh yes, we knew where the prizes were hidden!

No snow for Easter? I don’t know how you’ll manage! ;)
I love joyful traditions regardless of what religion or national origin those have. And I think it’s great when kids have those fond memories from their childhood.
