New Buds
Some flowering trees are already blooming, and trees that normally leaf out in April are beginning to show buds, like this Raywood ash tree.

In a town of 8,000 there are an amazing 56 restaurants listed for Port Townsend in dexknows.com. Of those, there are surprisingly few old fashioned diners. One such is the Bayview Restaurant. While its food is ordinary, the view it offers is stunning, located as it is, on the breakwater above Port Townsend Bay.
There are a couple of bald eagles that spend a lot of time around the Larry Scott Trail. This one was kind enough to glide low enough along the bluff to photograph.
These pitchers have nothing to do with Port Townsend. I just like the shape and the texture of the water drops on their sides. There’s also the fact that they remind me of the old Kool-Aid ads. I didn’t realize that there were actual pitchers with this shape until I saw these.
With the mild winter, flowers are blooming early. Our daffodils are coming up and the crocuses are already in bloom.
Flowers are lovely, but Port Townsend is home to an amazing number of very good gardeners who plant gardens that are interesting year round.
