Sparkle posted a few shots of the head of the spring an first canal with fish when she was here (see bluepinecones and me Feb 15 - sorry, I could not figure out how to bring those photos up here). Anyway, it is a much larger area and I wanted to share some of the other areas with the cherry trees blooming.
Looking down toward spring from court house square

This one is the other end of the canal in Sparkle's photo, look back toward the source of the spring

The canal passes under the street and opens into a very large lagoon (looking south)

View from same spot but looking more to the southeast

from the other side looking back northward

Still going around parts of the lagoon

Foot bridge between the two main lagoons


Water drops to a smaller lagoon, flows around buildings and back into another canal

and the last one

I'll tell you, Alabama is the place to be this time of year, absolutely beautiful. Thanks for the pics, and I'm adding that to my list next visit. When Carolinagal and I did our Alabama tour in Mar. 07, I think it was, I was struck by the pink dogwoods which I'd not seen before. They and the azaleas in peak bloom were gorgeous in eastern AL where we were.

Love.the.cherry.trees!See.if.you.can.get.a.good.shot.of.a.dogwood.

Soos, I never liked spring till I spent one in the south - as it was still winter for me - and we didn't plant flowers until almost Memorial Day - as we couldn't be sure we'd just be doing them all over again. And I consider Memorial Day the start of summer. Spring in the north for me was either winter, or mud. The fact that the trees blossomed just didn't do it for me. Then, spending springs in the south - near Bluepinecones and now here - big, big difference, I understand the beauty of spring! There is more than snow and more mud!

Thanks for posting these Spring pictures. Just don't have that beautiful color here in Texas.

Well, nutz!!! There's where our spring disappeared to this year!!

Just made a quick trip up through central Texas last week and the Bluebonnets have really opened up. The Redbuds are popping out all over along with the peaches and plums. Dogwoods are just in the "look at me in two weeks and I'll be a beauty" stage. The Geraniums left over from last fall at my brothers are beautiful now as are his tomatoes that made it through the winter...already have blossoms and small tomatoes!

Your Alabama photos are absolutely gorgeous! You could shoot them for a week or 6 and probably not run out of the changes. I love the azaleas and the Lady Banksia Roses when they start blooming.

Spring just a renewing time of year. Keep those lovely pics coming.

Wow, you live is a very beautiful area. Looks so neat and clean. I love brick/rock homes, too.
