The opening of the balcony season!

The opening of the balcony season!, originally uploaded by CharlesFred.

Still officially not spring, so therefore still winter, the sun has climbed high enough in the sky to shine on our back balcony and with no leaves on the trees the garden is having its brightest time of the year (at least when the sun shines like it has non-stop the past couple of days). So, it was a real treat to spend the late afternoon snacking and sipping (prosecco) until the sun went down. Hopefully, we can keep this up until some time in October, albeit off-and-on. Fred was, as usual, responsible for the catering.
