"March 1 began the numbered year in Russia until the end of the 15th century. Great Britain and its colonies continued to use March 25 until 1752, when they finally adopted the Gregorian calendar. Many other cultures and religions still celebrate the beginning of the New Year in March."

  1. It does look like such a warm, sunny and delightful day, Merisi! I would love to see some sunshine instead of the gray and rain that we're having here in Oregon. Hope you have a great weekend!!

      I heard on the radio the other day that this was the sunniest March on record, even before the month was over. We are so blessed this year!
      Wishing you a sunny weekend, too,

    1. Thank you, William!
      We have had summery temperatures a week ago, but then they dropped to spring level, which is fine with me. In fact, I like the mid-teens in spring, that way the blossoms and spring flowers last much longer.

  6. Ich mag deinen Blog, ich folge ihn. Immer, wenn ich neuen Artikel lese, ich möchte nach Wien reisen :-) Ich hoffe, dass im April-Mai nach Wien komme. Ich will die Rosen im Volksgarten fotografieren.

      Daniela, im April wirst du wahrscheinlich noch nicht so viele Rosen blühen sehen im Rosengarten. Ich werde danach Ausschau halten und eventuell ein paar Bilder posten, sobald sie erblühen!
      Alles Liebe,
