that's just about the first thing to bloom here..and they started last week. I drove by one today...and big old one...that was almost as big as my house! haha.
I know~! haha...it's going to rain tomorrow and I've been going on Friday! I guess I fooled the clouds this week! It was so nice to be out and not dodging rain!
We have a lot of Bradford pears around here, too. I like them, but at OTHER people's places. We had one in our front yard when we moved in, but they have such soft wood that a big storm broke it in half. It ended up resting on the top of the front porch :-)
They do kind of look like that! But it's been near 80 degrees! More like June than March! I'm sure you guys are having the same weather....it's lovely but so early!
It is lovely and it's wonderful to have the windows open! But just think...you don't even have to do spring cleaning this year! It's all done and organized! :) Come help me? ha.
Spring has surely sprung at you sea And just look at each tree They kind of resemble snow So now you can pretend you have some at your show Here today it is summer like The temp was hotter than it was in Hawaii when it hit it's spike Fun time indeed In this suana at my feed..haha
I'm not ready for sweltering heat. I bought a new fan and brought it home with me. First no snow and now no spring we've jumped straight to summer with this weather fling!
Yes it is that bad Wish I had a/c at my pad Dumb Mother Nature is all screw up in every way And to think Jack and Emily sprung her from that hell bay..haha
Beautiful trees! In my area...we would think there was snow on the trees.LOL Do the flowers on the trees smelling good? Do you have any allergies with things flowering out? I think I might be sneezing... Take care, Nancy
Aren't they exquisite - shape, blossom, colour. Wow. I don't think we have those here. PS: What on earth are the bonsai burgers you're having for dinner? I thought bonsai were miniature trees!
Wow - they are just stunning! I love Spring!
ReplyDeleteHey, look who is first! :)
DeleteLook amazing Betsy!! and are so large!! I have pears trees but are little (lol)
ReplyDeleteDo you have Bradford Pear trees there? These don't bear fruit. They are called that because their shape is like a pear. ha.
DeleteYes I understand Betsy and the shape is like pears not only think mine are little (lol)
Deletewe dont have here these trees betsy
DeleteHi Gloria! How was your day?
Deletehard Rebecca, but Im OK Im sure yours was so hard lol
DeleteWell, it wasn't too bad. :) I'm sorry your day was hard. The good thing about bad days is you can start over the next day. :)
Deleteyes it is, but these days happens me, I wake up in the morning and I dont know what day is!
DeleteWell I hope tomorrow will be a better day for you. I've gotta go relax before I go to bed. :)
DeleteThose shots are gorgeous! It looks like a collage on a postcard.
ReplyDeletethanks, silver...it was a beautiful day to be out and those trees were huge!
DeleteLike a snowy lane! We have some ornamental cherry trees in our area that are equally gorgeous, but we are a little behind you in the season.
ReplyDeleteare they those weeping cherry trees? those are in bloom here too...so beautiful! Our neighbor has one.
DeleteNo, these are not weeping. They actually look very similar to the Bradford Pear trees, just not quite so tall.
DeleteI bought one of those weeping cherry trees last year. Looking forward to seeing it bloom this spring. :)
you guys are probably a few weeks behind us...just like we are behind Ky and TN. They had gorgeous blooms a couple of weeks ago!
DeleteOur forsythia (did I spell it right?) bushes are just blooming.
DeleteThe allergies are in full swing at our house. :(
that's just about the first thing to bloom here..and they started last week. I drove by one today...and big old one...that was almost as big as my house! haha.
DeleteWhat I really want is a pussy willow!
Oh me too! My parents have one in their back yard on the edge of a swamp. It's HUGE!
DeleteOh, that is so neat. I saw a beautiful wreath made out of them...it was so unique and lovely!
DeleteHey it didn't rain for your grocery trip! ha - I love Spring, the flowering trees and the flowers and the beginning of such a hoprful season.
ReplyDeleteI know~! haha...it's going to rain tomorrow and I've been going on Friday! I guess I fooled the clouds this week! It was so nice to be out and not dodging rain!

DeleteWe have a lot of Bradford pears around here, too. I like them, but at OTHER people's places. We had one in our front yard when we moved in, but they have such soft wood that a big storm broke it in half. It ended up resting on the top of the front porch :-)
ReplyDeleteThey are not hearty, that is for sure. We had one that got a fungus and died. But they are lovely!
DeleteLooks like spring has really arrived in your area! You are likely a couple weeks ahead of us.
ReplyDeleteWe probably are just south enough to be ahead of you...just a little while longer! :)
DeleteGorgeous! I'm hoping to catch some similar shots this weekend. Our warm weather is definitely pushing up the growing season.
ReplyDeleteI know...everything is coming out early! We should still be wearing coats and having frost in the mornings!
DeleteI thought they were snow covered...beautiful...it is a beautiful spring..Great shots, Betsy

ReplyDeleteI know,...but I usually bring it with me...you never know what's going to happen to me when I'm going through my day! lol. Do you have snow?
DeleteNot today! Somewhat sunny and cold.
DeleteCan't wait for Spring to show up. They say this weekend we will get a peek.
Your Spring is so beautiful.
