I want to show you the start of our spring season and how it changes the wide open landscapes into lovely paintings.
So come with us on a drive around the countryside to see the beautiful effects of the new spring season.
During winter as you know, everything is bleak and dour, but when spring comes the lands start to dress in new colors and the birds change their sad songs into warm melodies. It always also awakens the joy inside ourselves.
It is such a pleasure to feel the warm air on a long unplanned drive and to be surprised by the lovely views.
So hop in and lets go.
Still early here, but it will soon start to lighten up.
Now how clever is this below to plant Lavender along the length next to the vineyards in order to draw bees to pollinate the vineyards.
Here is a shot of our way back home.
I will tell you a funny story in another post, about scarecrows and man's attempts to scare the birds away. The birds simply turned around to show man that they are boss. Very funny:)
We love to awake in the mornings and then to get into the car, and to just drive into nowhere. Sadly, the high prices of gas/petrol get scary these days, and this severely shortens our trips. In the past on a Sunday, I could easily get up and travel for 2-3 hours on a trip in the countryside. North, South, East, West, I go as the wind blows and so many times I encounter lovely surprises. No speeding and just a slow leisurely cruise and I allow the countryside to talk to me. There is so much beauty in life, all just waiting for us to discover, if we would only just nip a bit of our rushed time off to have a look. A real deep look, of course.
I hope that you have enjoyed the trip and the photos.
And That's All Friends.
