Day 155

I'm overly fascinated with the different varieties of azaleas in our neighborhood. If you all get bored of them, I don't blame you. Today's azaleas all have pink spots on the different shades of flowers. If you look closely at most of the flowers, you will see pollen dust from the bees.

Day 141

Today was overcast. I finished come errands before meeting my best friend in the evening, so we could leave for our trip in the morning.

I went to the grocery store to buy some lunch for today and breakfast for Sunday.

The maple trees were covered with red helicopter seeds. I call them helicopter seeds because if you drop one from high up, they will spin down like a helicopter propeller

Another close up of the seeds.


There were trees with yellow blooms, bundled up for sale, outside of the grocery store.


These white petals had fallen off of the trees at the post office.


This non-bloomed dandelion was amongst the fallen petals.


On the way to my best friend's house, the sun was setting between the trees near her house.
