One of the nice things about being quarantined in spring is starting to watch the flowers bloom around us. My wife is much more of a flower person than I am, but it’s still been nice to see the trees and flowers start to bloom on our walks. Gives a nice feeling of normalcy to the year. Our front and back yards are starting to turn into a riot of color. After a long winter, spring is always gratifying to see.

Downtown Bothell, on the other hand, kind of feels like a zombie movie. Even seeing people out, there should be more people out and doing stuff.
