Odorless Utah

If you're a regular reader of this blog, you probably know that this year we've only entered spring since early June. This week, flower trees are in full bloom and in the next ten days, it might be the turn of lilac trees to enchant us and fill us up with their signature perfume. Since we had the first thundershower of the year last night, the air was still filled with humidity when I ran this morning and it truly was a festival of flowery fragrances.

It smelled spring all over and if this is something people who live in humid areas take for granted, we rarely enjoy it under the bone-dry climate of the state of Utah. Until this morning, I had all but forgotten how spring smelled like and it brought tons of memories from my younger years back in France...
