REALLY feeling better about the spring

When Boston gets its spring on, it does it in a beautiful way. I love the magnolias that line Commonwealth Avenue and Beacon Street. These are on Comm Ave. Absolutely voluptuous blossoms--they're almost vulgar.

And this next picture just tickles me. Along Comm Ave, we saw a delightful statue of a black Labrador peeking out between the balusters. Notice that there's also a bronze tennis ball just to the left...



As we were admiring the statue, we heard a voice coming from the second-floor balcony. "Here's the real one!!" she said, and a friendly black Lab stuck his head out between those balusters and barked hello.

That made us smile for quite a while.

As a lab owner, I love this! It is nice that Spring seems to have finally arrived.
