Time Travel Thursday #36 - Signs of the Season


CHECK OUT ALL THE DETAILS FOR THE PARTY HERE!



Welcome to the 36th Time Travel Thursday linky party at the Brambleberry Cottage.

Are you ready for our next trip back in time and into the future?

Then let's get started!


I so look forward to the many delightful sights, sounds, and scents around the cottage, during this very special time of year.


The plum trees—by the log barn and silo—have literally exploded into a profusion of gloriously perfumed blossoms.


If only you could join me beneath their generous floral canopy and experience the intoxicatingly sweet scent of their blooms, wafting through the air.


Enveloped by this shroud of white, we could lazily gaze at the tufts of billowy clouds, as they effortlessly float by.

Their beauty matched only by the backdrop of the crisp blue Carolina sky.


Then with a casual stroll to the cottage porch, a mere hop, skip and jump away, we could...


watch as the rays of sunlight dance through the camellia bushes...



and coax the cottony buds of the pear tree to unfurl.

We could listen, with earnestly eager ears, as our feathered guests perform their early spring recitals. 


And before the day was through, we could rest within the tranquil sanctuary of the pines—where my little garden guardian resides—and bask in the marvelous multisensory signs of the season.


Joining Susan for Outdoor Wednesday, Kathleen for White Wednesday, Tracie for Cottage Flora Thursday, and Cindy for Show and Tell Friday.

    Your first spring blooms are lovely. Can't wait to see ours. Your photos are so beautiful, I can almost smell them. I just linked up the last day of our trip to New England, in an 1800's bed and breakfast. Hope you enjoy the step back in time. Thanks for hosting a fun blog party.
