A TRIP TO BIG BEAR LOOKING FOR SPRING COLORS

Our mountains here always seem to be behind in blooming so when it starts I'm always out looking for color.

We went up to Big Bear the other day and the weather was perfect for walking and just enjoying being outside.  It felt so strange that on such a beautiful day there were very few people  out and about.   Our county has now made it voluntary that we wear masks but stores have the right to require them.

    Today, I was coloring several houses among trees in my Scandinavian coloring book. I thought about you and this blog, how you like houses, as do I. Big Bear is lovely, I haven't been there for a very, very long time, but I remember it well. We had some friends who lived there years ago.

    Ha llegado con retraso, pero ya hay buenas muestras de floración en tus imágenes.

    Los paisajes son muy hermosos y los embellecen aún más las flores.

    Besos

    Those gorgeous blooming trees! Glad you could get out for your walk, and I loved your photos. Our little county only had 10 cases reported and no deaths, so things are pretty much back to normal in our area.

    Magnificent scenery! I love all the colours you found Sandy.
    I enjoy watching fly-over documentaries sometimes, and I'm going to find ones over all the areas you mention 😊

    Hi Linda, - we still have only 10 documented cases here and I think one death but the patient had preexisting conditions as far as I've heard. It feels so good to get out.

    Sue, thanks ...We have some pretty lake areas up here if you can find them it would be cool to see.

    Thanks Val. Love it so much - i'm always trying to get out and catch the beautiful blooms in time before they disappear.

    thanks Jan ...spring and fall - favorite times of the year.

    thanks Antonia ...

    Your walks are so refreshing. I love all the trees blossoming.
    Ours here are long gone and into the beginning fruit bearing stages.
    Rain in the forecast today and on into the weekend.
    Its good for the plants but I want sunshine and warm for our walks.
    Sue
