Springtime in Spokane

Without a doubt is is Springtime in Spokane! The plum trees that they have planted in between all of the pine trees in the RV Park are just finishing up their spring bloom -

 
We went into Cheney this afternoon to stock up on groceries at the Safeway there. We had wanted to pick up the mail that Daughter MM had sent, but the Post Office in Cheney is not open on Saturday...  The Arrowleaf Balsamroot along the road is also winding down its blooming season. Its bright yellow flowers can be seen all along the highway.


The lupine that is also blooming along the road makes a nice contrast with the yellow -


The daffodils, tulips and hyacinths planted in Spokanite's yards are spectacular. We have returned too late to the Northwest the past few years, so haven't seen them for a long time. The lilac bushes and trees are also budding out. We are going to have to take a trip over to Manito Gardens and drive through to check them all out.
