A Tale of Two Springs

Spring can bring surprises as it moves in fits and starts toward summer.

I had planned a post about spring in Glasgow when life brought its own set of surprises and I now find myself sitting in Greece.

So why not share some pictures of spring in both places?

First, Glasgow:

When the weather is nice in Glasgow, Glaswegians make a mass exodus to its parks and green spaces since you don’t know when the next sunny day will come.

I also made a trip to a lovely big park for a peek at baby Highland cows. How can you resist?

A stroll in a neighborhood alley where former stables are charming cottages.

And even the dogs were in the act of relishing a nice weather day.

I came to Greece a week ago as D.’s mother has had surgery. She’s thankfully improving little by little and D.’s extended family have been wonderfully supportive.

Although my daily routine here has been some variation of hospital-work-home, I’ve still savored the beauty of small moments along the way.

Back in D.’s hometown of Pireaus, more cats on antiquities.

And the marina, with calming views of the sea.

Here’s to experiencing beauty wherever you may find yourself. Wishing you health, happiness, and peace.
