Day 402

Some of the trees have been budding and blooming. Here are some of my favorite ones.

Pine

If you look closely, you can see pine pollen trapped in the thread trails from inchworms.

I'm not sure what this is, but it's in full bloom with several buds still growing.

Cherry

Dogwood

Day 307

I noticed berry like buds growing on the Cherry Blossom trees. The leaves are starting to change colors. By the cherry trees, was a thick blanket of various nuts. Of course, there were a lot of squirrels enjoying the bounty.

Day 142

Today, my best friend Kit McSmash and I headed to Falls Church, VA for our friend's 30th b-day party.

Recently, Kit had planted new Azalea bushes. They had a few buds and blooms. 

She has a different kind of wild purple flower growing in her yard.

While she was at the ATM, I took a photo of some of the rain clouds. The rain started right after she finished her transaction.

We got to Falls Church, VA at about 3pm. All of us headed out to a Korean bakery before the party. By their apartment, are many cherry trees, full of blossoms. The Cherry Blossom Festival is going on in Washington, DC, which is near by, but we didn't have time this trip to go.
