Happy First Day of Spring


The first day of spring is one thing, and the first spring day is another. The difference between them is sometimes as great as a month. ~Henry Van Dyke

This morning, I woke up to gray clouds and a warm breeze. Two hours later, I was rushing around my backyard scooping up radios and couches while the rain soaked through everything in sight, and by the time I got here to the lodge it was blue skies and sunshine everywhere. Looking out the window now we have a mini tornado going on and I think I just saw a person flying down the street. Just kidding! The first day of spring has certainly not disappointed its reputation, and would we really have it any other way?

March 22, 2009 has also ushered in many other new beginnings as well. Kite surfers are beginning to take full advantage of the windy season out on Cardiff Beach, and the Flower Fields in Carlsbad are beginning to bloom in full force. http://www.theflowerfields.com/

Our own rooftop garden is beginning to flower in earnest as well. It's the perfect time to enjoy a warm spring weekend at Cardiff by the Sea Lodge and all the great attractions nearby!
