Wisteria in My Soul

Dar es Salaam is near the equator.  That means there’s only about a 20 degree difference between the hottest time of the year and the coolest part of the year.  There’s no need for Daylight Savings Time, because sunrise and sunset only varies by about a half an hour throughout the whole year.

There’s a rainy season and a dry season.  There’s a hot season and a hotter season.  That’s about it.

I miss seasons.  I long for them, sometimes.  Spring is my favorite, and thankfully spring comes early to southern California.

Yesterday Grace and I were out walking, and stopped under the most glorious purple tree.  Make a picture in your mind, I told her, So that you can remember how beautiful this is.  



Monday we visited Huntington Gardens, one of the most beautiful places on earth.  Hoping to soak in enough spring to last me the next few years.

    I love the pictures. Huntington Gardens is beautiful. Have you been to Descanso Gardens? Another place to soak up spring (my favorite season as well).

    Thanks, Dr. Adams. I haven't been there but have seen the signs. We'll have to make a trip. 🙂
