One of the delights of living in this part of the world is that we have two Springs, each with its own personality and delights. First comes the spring of forsythia, daffodils, magnolias and cherry trees, with a chill in the air and the threat that a late frost might cut off the blossoms in their prime. Then, a week or so after the last cherries are gone, comes a second burst of color led by the dogwoods, azaleas, tulips, and crabapples. The threat of frost is long gone in this season, and the coming humid heat of summer can be felt on some afternoons. Second Spring was well under way in Georgetown last week when I took these pictures.
