Spring comes to St. Paul

By
Real Estate Agent with Boardman Realty

I know I complain during the winter about being cold and having to show houes when it is "I can't stand it" below zero, but there are many reasons why I love living in St. Paul, and spring is one of those reasons.

In the spring the grass turns green again and people come out and walk or ride along the bike paths.  I get to see my neighbors again.  The shipping seasons has started so I can hear the boat horns again too.

In the spring the tables and umbrellas come back outside.  We like to eat outside.

People plant flowers every where.

I grow flowers every where.  These are the tulips in front of my house.  

The trees are getting leaves on them and everything looks wonderful.  I guess the landmark center always looks wonderful.

Do you always have crystal clear blue skies, or is it a seasonal phenomenon? Amazing!

You're a bit behind my area.  Our trees are almost fully out and my tulips are already gone.  Now I'm waiting for the Zinnias.

Teresa, the last picture looks like something from Europe. I do so love your photos with their crispness...felt like I could walk right along the water and sit at that empty table and enjoy my Sunday...but oops I'd best get ready to show houses. Thanks for a little pleasurable time off.

Hi Teresa...Your photos are a powerful way to convey a sense of your community. 

I am so glad you make sure the size is worthy of the picture, something I need to consider.
