In the Northern Hemisphere we are celebrating the first day of Spring. On the Vernal Equinox, day and night are of equal length. The earth wakes from its long Winter’s nap and signals the renewal of plant life.
We can also renew ourselves. New plans, new good habits, new outlook on life. Happy Spring to Everyone!

In the Southern Hemisphere it is the first day of Autumn. Day and night are again of equal length. The leaves are beginning to turn into their bright hues and the air is getting chilly. Time to harvest and finish projects. Happy Autumn to Everyone!
Happy Spring to you 🙂 Yesterday at the village market I bought a little buddleia ready for planting for Spring 🙂

Thank you so much, Alistair! I saw tiny tulip leaves popping up, and of course, the inevitable weeds! 🙂

Happy Spring/Autumn to everyone. May the whole world experience a change for the better and come to realise there is only one race and there should be no winners or losers.

Hello from the UK
Many thanks for your post. It slipped my mind about the vernal equinox. As a consequence I have just thought of a related idea for a post.
If you have nothing better to do, I did this myself on Race.

Thank you so much, Kristen! Needless to say, the crew are hiding so as not to be involved in Spring cleaning. 😀

Thanks Morgaine, happy spring and sunshine for you! The days are becoming noticeably shorter here with darkness descending earlier every evening and this week has been colder. Time to start rugging up for me!

Well, that’s a positive way to look at it! There was an aurora last night but it was cloudy. Went for a short night walk with the neighbour.
