Fresno in the spring IS beautiful.
The trees are all leafed out, or in process. Fresno has many crepe myrtles, so they’re getting all their leaves, but no flower buds yet. They’re gorgeous all over town when in flower. And all the japanese maples are so delicate. I think Hubby would make our entire backyard look like the japanese maple garden over at Fresno State--completely shaded on even the sunniest days with the full covering of leaves.
The grapevines are starting to unleash their tendrils. We’re hoping our three little grapevines give some nice grapes this year. We’re liking to take routes past vineyards and orchards of citrus and fruit, just to enjoy the blossoms and scents.
I noticed that the flowers bloom a bit later than those in LA, but there’s more of them here. It looks like this may be a good year for our roses, finally.
Anyone else enjoying spring in their area?

But at least they aren't Stockton, chosen as the most miserable city in the country!
