Spring has come late to Minnesota, but now that it has arrived, it has arrived in full-force. There are blossoms everywhere, including Irvine Park – the historic heart of Saint Paul.

It is only a brief moment in time, but such a beautiful moment!

Those trees are gorgeous. I am always a “sucker” for pink flowers. That fountain reminds me of the ones we have in the Public Gardens in Halifax.
Yeah, I have a weakness for pink flowers too. There is just something about them that says “spring!!”!
Spring has finally arrived in Calgary too. It’s a glorious time of the year though I’m having a tough time keeping up with the weeds.
So many places are beautiful in the spring, but that is a gorgeous season here, so I hate to travel then. And that is when you need to get at the weeds! I’ve already given up on the weeds for this year . . .
Wow, Love that color! So pretty.
Thanks. I liked having all that pink as a background (or foreground).
Spring certainly shows how spectacular Nature can be. Beautiful photos.
We waited a long time here this year, but once it came, it was glorious!
Absolutely gorgeous!
Thanks. Not cherry blossoms like everyone is looking for, but I think they are as beautiful and dramatic.
Gorgeous!
