I "saw" snow before I processed your title. It s l o w l y sank in.

Do you have a "before" picture of the trees? I bet it was a spectacular show (short-lived, maybe, but spectacular!).

Looks to me like someone spilled a box of Tide. I guess they still make that stuff?

Oh how I love cherry blossoms! I have heard they have a lot in Washington too so you are lucky!!!

We don`t get them in Australia so I guess it is a good thing I live in Japan!

Thanks for stopping by my blog. The boy was very uncomfortable with the little mermaid....because she spoke to him in English in a highpitched voice and expected him to respond but he doesn`t really speak English! hehe! I think the photo is funny!

Happy WW!

I'll bet that's a little more pleasant than the crazy hail-snow storm thing we had here in Colorado last week! At least it ought to smell nice. Great shot! :D

I swear I thought that was snow. I've seen cherry blossoms on the tree, but never like this!

Thanks for visiting and commenting on my site. :)

Cool!

Was it slippery to walk on?

I think it would be more difficult to clean up than snow!

I would rather have that kind of blizzard... then the one we are expecting tomorrow.
Getting the real stuff tomorrow... and lots of it. ICK!

Beautiful photo! It just makes me sad to see a tree without it's cherry blossoms. To me it means the end of Spring.

It does bear a strong resemblance to snow.

Well I'll be. I'm sitting here thinking that is snow on the ground and then I read the title of the post. Now I'm completely fascinated that this is actually Cherry Blossoms! I bet it is a gorgeous tree in bloom.

HEY you posted about 2 kinds of pie hot and cold over at RC's I think, anyway, that's EXACTLY what one of my uncles used to say. its kind of a family joke and my hubby has taken it over and says that he has 2 favorite kinds, hot and cold. it is really disgusting how well he fits in with my family. oh well. just thought you should know that you're not the only one. ha!

Ok, did you have those words up there before? So this is petals? Well that's much better than snow but poor flowers. :(

Sadly our walk looks like that but thicker and it is actually snow. Lovely photo. I imagine it smelled lovely around there for awhile.

An Old Cold Spot

Image
My brother Mike emailed me this photo last night.  He said this was a goodbye salute that he snapped today in his garage where this old freezer has been chugging away since 1988.  That was the year our mama decided she was tired of bending over and digging through it.  Besides, she no longer needed the capacity and hadn't for several years. Mike and my sister-in-law  spent the next 25 years "digging" through this old freezer.  My sis-in-law was very good at keeping it and the cupboards stocked.  The two of them kept promising each other that "It is going to die soon, so we will just keep it until that day." Twenty-five years may seem like a very long life for a freezer.  It is MUCH older than that. Sears only sold Coldspot through 1976.  I thought that my parent's purchased this freezer in the sixties.  My brother said he put the serial number 'on-line' and it matched a 1953 manufacturing date.   Here is a close up of the make and model that

Apparitions in my Garden

Karmyn is the host of Fun Monday this week with a subject that is near and dear to her heart. Not to mention her knees and fingers. But I mentioned them anyway. The subject? --- What's Growing In Your Garden. As soon as I signed up I grabbed my camera and headed out the back door. Alyssum, lady's mantle, gaillardia, Jupiter beard, and a bunch of other stuff I can't remember is blooming in this photo. We didn't put as many annuals in this year so I miss all the yellows and reds that we often enjoy. But, something else showed up in that surprised me. Can it be that my yard is haunted? Cheeky little ghost! A shot from the deck near the hammock shows off some ornamental grass, petunias, pond plants ... and that bold apparitio

Bird Voyeur

The sweet little digital camera that the hubby purchased (after I dropped our old one) has encouraged me to do a little more walking. Last week I took it with me when I walked up the "creek" path, which doubles for joggers and bikers as well. I've seen beavers, mink, deer, birds, birds, birds, and once the tail end of a bear run running away through the brush. Of course, without a camera. Now I carry it often. This time I was watching the Belted King Fisher performing an acrobatic display and chattering at the ducks and geese in his fishing territory. I was zooming in on him in a tree across the water when I spotted what I thought was a huge wasp or hornet nest very high in the tree. (Thanks to Susan for bringing up bee's today.) The heavy binoculars were at home, so I continued to try to see it through my camera. Then, a weird movement caught my eye. What I thought was a giant paper wasp nest was really a Great Blue Heron sleeping on one leg with his head ben
