4. Beautiful! I'm envious, too.
I pass a tree every night on my way home that has the most awesome flowers in the spring, but tonight, it looked bare and half dead. We have another kind of whiteout here in NY. *sigh* ;(

11. What a cool pic! Thanks!
I know that a lot of people like the change of seasons, but winter, here in snow country, is one that I could do without... x( :hi:

5. My dear Ptah!
Ha!

This is not the whiteout I expected!

Looks like spring has already arrived in Tuscon...

These are just beautiful!

Thanks for sharing, sweetie...

6. Pretty!
Do you know what kind of tree it is? No flowers out here yet, that is for sure! Well, actually the cottonwoods are starting, if you want to call them flowers. Saw a bat out around noon today - I guess it was eating bees around the cottonwoods today - crazy!

10. I was afraid someone would ask that.

No idea.

Wheat and Barley are about the limit of my knowledge.

I was thinking maybe a decorative plum but there sure are a LOT of flowers.

edit: I see they are around - interesting, never heard of them!
