It was sunny here (portland) yesterday, and it is supposed to be for the rest of the week, which is big news since it's been raining for 2 months straight. I have seen some spring flowers around - little irises and crocuses and stuff. Woot!

(Actually, I like the rain and I don't mind it).

same up here (sw on the coast of seattle). we only had 28 days straight of rain. i grew up here in western washington so i'm not right if it doesn't rain for a while but for my kids sake it's nice for them to not have indoor recess. ^_^

I adore Lily of the Valley!! They smell sooooo wonderful, my grandmother had them growing all up the side of her house but they seemed to be individual stalks i had no idea they were also a shrub!

*plans for garden next year*

the shrub actually doesn't have a smell it's just the look only. but they look soooooo cool! i recommend it if your climate allows it. ^_^ i do have the regular lily of the valley and i love them too!!!
