Weather watch post again…our primary azalea display is on the cusp of full-on extravaganza, yet we are expecting six hours of below-freezing temps just before sun-warmth arrives tomorrow. Fingers crossed endurance triumphs.

In truth, the biggest adjustment yesterday, contrary to the clock situation I wrote about, was/is Meeeee. I don’t do well with time changes, even “just” one hour. And I haven’t this time, either. It didn’t help that last evening we stayed up for the entire Oscars, also known as Everything winning most categories.
So, I awakened late this morning, and am now rather yawn-y…give me a week, and I’ll be back in (a version of) the groove.
White variant (and far less common) of the pink Eastern redbud pictured…a kind of an alternate reality.

“Green, white accents.” That’s what I’d entitle this lovely front garden. The distant chairs look like blobs here; in person, they looked like they had the potential to be mildly comfortable. Pour me a martini!

There’s nothing original about a three-photo progression. Nevertheless, it can tug at the heart-strings.
So, there’s a bud, and a partly open flower.
And here are several open blooms.
These aren’t from the same bushes, but, duh, they’re all azaleas. And, I was out in the morning after the rain stopped. If I’d been out in the afternoon, the photos would show sunshine.
My favorite bit is the “hat” cap on the bud in the first photo (partly edited out of the image…sorry).

In the passage of spring, we’re shifting from the bulbs to the fruit tree blooms.

Silverbell. Can’t figure out which one.
Neighbor’s “old car.” I grew up with a neighbor down the road who had many old cars, but they were much older than this one; his were Model T’s and that era.

Lots to see here. First, the bloom and the foliage do not go together. A jasmine blossom fell strategically off a vine far above this green-whatever. Also, there are many insects. Are the white ones aphids? I dunno.

We had one of those gorgeous days that sometimes follow awful storms. In this case, the storm wasn’t that awful…in our neighborhood. Clear, however, is, whew, lovely. Note the tiny leaves emanating green-ness on the tree to the left. [I’m glorying in the Time of the Redbud Buds; see tree to the right.]

I do enjoy this view, yet mostly can’t create shots that match what I see. Nice color smear.
Close up of redbud blooms. No smear.
Also, the pine pollen is arriving. Rain coming soon will help.

No plays today, one-act or longer. No especial content of any kind. Just a branch of wee flowers.
