The pundits say the possibility of a freeze still lurks for a week or two. Nevertheless, our spring harbingers are out in force. The Irises in the side yard planted decades ago are in bloom. And all over town Red Bud trees push out buds and then their pink blooms. Dad's Mountain Laurel has some blooms, too. Yesterday was a day of breezes and an impossibly blue sky, the background for this picture.

What a lovely sight...sakuras, magnolias and all those pink flowering trees make me look forward more to spring...really lovely!
ReplyDeleteI'm coming to Austin mid-April to visit my niece. It will be my first trip to Texas. I can hardly wait! I'm still surrounded by snow here in Nebraska, so needless to say, those pretty pink flowering trees make me jealous. :)
