You know it's spring

 

Perhaps I've posted this view from my windows before. Memory isn't all that great today.

Happy Easter to those who celebrate!

Dawn on nearby mountain top March 29. Some days I stay inside and enjoy the view ...but some days I just must drive around to see what's blooming. You'll notice here a little dogwood tree is just by that ramp to the other apartments.

Dawn hits the mountain top on April 2...blooms have appeared.

On the other side of that building is a pink dogwood.

Posted this dogwood back on March 24...

And here it is in full bloom April 1.

I did drive around and called it my dogwood tour of Montreat and Black Mountain. The white blooms just are such great punctuation marks in the greyness of deciduous trees, or against occasional evergreens.

Through the windshield looking downhill.

Not my photo, but the swallowtails have appeared again!

On Rhododendron Ave. coming from the Lakeview Center on April 2.

More of the pink dogwood variety soon!

If your compassion does not include yourself it is incomplete.
