It's about time spring has arrived! There are no leaves on the trees, no flowers blooming except a few daffodils here and there. How do I know spring has arrived? There are plenty of "Utah Cone Flowers" popping up their lovely orange heads everywhere. These beautiful orange cone flowers are "blooming" down the middle and edges of more and more roads. I have dubbed these Utah's new state flower. Everywhere you turn, there is road construction and orange cones! My usual drive from home to work is three miles, but now after a dozen or so road-blocked signs, detour signs, men-working signs, road-work-ahead signs, barriers, orange barrels and cones, I zig and zag an additional four miles! I swear, every road I take has some sort of road construction. Aargh! Oh yes, spring is soooo much my favorite time of the year!
I am just glad I live where there are real flowers and leaves. We get orange cone flowers sometimes in the summer
ReplyDeleteAt least you can see the "beauty" in it. I say it is all in the attitude!
