Encore, encore


Once again Mother Nature has performed her magical opening act for Spring time. At least it seems like magic to me when thousands of trees burst forth in pink and white blossoms ON THE SAME DAY. Mere humans have trouble deciding on when to make the change for Daylight Savings Time (which is this coming Sunday morning at 2:00 am by the way) but it seems all these trees know just when to spring forth with their new outfits. I can just imagine a tree whispering on the breeze, "Pssst, full blossom, tomorrow morning, pass it on."

The trees in our yard haven't bloomed yet although they are getting ready. Most of them have buds which are swelling, waiting for their signal. The front lawn is starting to grow again. Right now it is starting to look shaggy. The back yard hasn't woken up yet.
