Spring has Sprung!


With the erratic and unpredictable weather that's a traditional sign of a Eugene spring, the city that was draped in mostly browns and grays emerges with a new spectrum of vibrant colors as trees and bushes are reborn. Daffodils and tulips splash campus with vibrant patches of life, and fragrant daphne bushes are constant and welcome reminders of the shifting seasons. However, there is one sign of spring that trumps all others: cherry blossoms. Against the backdrop of a blue sky, there is no other flower, tree, or bush that screams spring more. A swift wind comes along and the sky is filled with a spring "snow," as the streets are covered in the light, pink blanket of spring.
