It is the middle of spring time. So what is flowering in your yard or in the neighborhood?
Take a moment, stop what you are doing, and check out what is blooming. There is more than you might think.

Spring Swell over Ni’ihau Island on the Pacific Ocean from the front yard.
Over the years, Kauai has become our primary residence (300+ days). However, we are looking forward to traversing our backyard of Idaho later this year. I hope it looks as wonderful as. it does in the Post [here].
*** Jeff’s Thoughts and Other Worthless Trivia ***
I noticed the swell Over Ni’ihau Island as I started my out and back run on the beach (with the Border Collies) to the Kikiaola Small Boat Harbor. For perspective, Ni’ihau is 14 miles away. The Waimea Pier is 1/4 mile away. The small boat harbor is two miles away.

That spring swell !!
The swell was kind of cool. I ran towards it, knowing the distance and running speed on the beach (at 67) would protect me!
