At last, at long last, spring has arrived in our neck of the woods. The sun is shining, the temperatures are spring warm, and we finally have some blossoms. Life is good!
And a bonus:
A small commentary: Florida wins once again! Weston, Fla., has outlawed dance halls, nightclubs, and skating rinks, even though it has none. Mayor Eric Hersh said a rise in nightlife-related crime throughout South Florida had convinced officials to adopt the pre-emptive ban. “This is something that we thought would protect the city,” Hersh said. (Quoted from The Week magazine).
No offense to any readers who might be Floridians – it’s just I think you guys have some strange laws.
Number three — Yowza that’s a beaut!

Happy spring! Are you sure it’s really here? Don’t know about that Florida law, either…

I love the bonus!
If we were to ban nightlife here, what would the tourists do in the evening?

I suspect they would go where there is nightlife.

I’m so happy for you – you’ve been waiting for it, but, as always, it’s worth the wait! Lovely flowers. Aren’t they just the BEST – spring flowers! I love your bluebirds too – we don’t have those here.
Interesting about Florida! It seems to me that most American States have a few very weird laws! They are often quoted on quiz/comedy shows over here! The new Florida one does seem a bit over the top – somehow I don’t think stopping crime is that simple!

I am a fool for purple and blue flowers. I have very few on account of the extreme vespid allergy, so I appreciate sharing yours 🙂
As far as the Florida laws go, I’m not sure why we haven’t learned our lesson from Prohibition. Outlawing something seems to do very little by way of stopping unwanted behaviors.
