Roses & Honeysuckles

I walked out my front door the other day & realized, for the first time in years, why I love spring. This is our first spring in this house and I didn't expect the smell when I walked out the door that morning... all I could smell were honeysuckles and roses.... No exhaust fumes, reeking garbage, or smog. Literally, all I could smell were honeysuckles and roses. I guess after living in Atlanta for so long then living in the city or right next to a major road when I moved back to Chattanooga I'd forgotten that it was even possible to walk out the door and smell something nice. It reminded me of being a kid again. I catch myself standing on the front porch a lot now... just to savor the smell :)
