I love watching everything come back to life starting around this time of year. I’ve never appreciated these changes so much until this year, however.
Because last Sunday (March 8th) I decided to post a few photos of some trees in my neighborhood that were starting to show the “fall” colors of early spring in their buds and branches before the chlorophyll kicks in (see my post “Winter Into Spring”), I decided to make “The Progression of Spring” a regular weekly feature until things look like summer again, probably around the end of May.
The first photo shows the exact same location as last week but there are a few changes: the grass is a LOT greener than last week (this happened almost overnight), and the trees look fuller and a few are beginning to bloom. The second photo was taken right by my house.
Both these photos make it hard to believe it’s technically still winter.

I was going to do this once a week but things are changing so fast now I might have to take some more pics tomorrow and then some on the weekend. Not sure if I’ll have time though tomorrow but I will try.
