Just now....

Here's a street I pass down almost every day near my home and at this time of year I always silently bless whoever decided to plan these beautiful flowering trees so many years ago. They are just starting to bloom now and will soon be covered with wonderful bunches of blooms like pink popcorn. Though there is still a nip in the air, these trees make it seem warmer. I took this photo less than an hour ago.

Are they thundercloud plum trees?

I just Goggled Victoria BC weather and your temps are just a few degrees warmer than Pickering, Ontario. It boggles my mind that I live much further south than you and all ready you have blooms that would be too early for here.

Langford St. is great in the spring - a great bloom in another month downtown is View St. between Blanchard and Quadra.

Beautiful blossoms.

On the day I write this, it's gotten frosty again in Ottawa. Something like minus nine.
