A Garden, Everywhere

It's so beautiful here now. Spring is happening very slowly, but since I get to walk a mile to and from work, I can watch it all happen a little more each day. It's so beautiful.
Above and below are the same tree. Susan always identifies her flowers by genus and species, plus the common name. I'm not going to do that, but I hope you appreciate the flowers just the same.
The shrubbery below looks ratty and yuck...
...but look closely - something's happening.
There are several Magnolia trees on my block.

There are daffodils blooming, and they're very sunny and cheerful, but I love the flowering trees.
Here's a blossom from a maple tree in Greg's parents' back yard in Connecticut.





Squirrels love spring, too.

I love spending spring in Boston through you! Of course you know you should learn the name of that beautiful tree outside your front door--someone will ask:)
I love you,
Mom
