Spring at the Belmont
Last weekend when we were in New Jersey we could still see melting snow on the streets.
In Durham spring is clearly starting. As I am writing this there is a bird singing outside, which is somewhat annoying but a hopeful sign of spring.
Last night we had dinner with Belén, Estéban and Hernan and we had a really nice evening.
This morning I went to pick up our car and after a cup of coffee I'm on my way to Southpoint to get a haircut. A good hairdresser is another of those important amenities to have around, but I haven't really found a good one yet. Regis is not bad but it's in the mall and quite far.
Spring at the Belmont.
Blooming trees.

I noticed you used the word 'amenities' in two subsequent posts. A newly learned word?
amenities
Haha, nice that you noticed.
I learned it when we were looking for an apartment in Arlington. The brochures and advertisements were always talking about "amenities".
I was curious and looked it up in the Van Dale. In Dutch it's "gemak", as in "van alle gemakken voorzien".
I love those blooming trees,
I love those blooming trees, nice picture. Here everything is still gloomy, no sight of spring yet. Still some traces of snow on the ground.
