Happy Vernal Equinox!

First Day of SpringFirst Day of Spring in Livermore, CA

Spring is a favorite time of the year for me. Our backyard is filled with birds and new buds. Leaves are a fresh, pale shade of green. Here in Livermore, California, the first day of spring was warm 78ºF (25.6ºC) and sunny. Hillsides are mostly green, but browning fast because of low winter rain.
