Did I mention it’s Magnolia season?
Categories: Photography, Photographs, Weather
This is the Week of the Exploding Magnolia Trees - exploding as in blooming furiously! This is my fourth spring down here and I’m still finding the magnolia trees pretty fabulous. The trees get so thick with blossoms that it’s amazing. The petals are heavy but soft. The trees just seem to burst with blossoms every spring! Most of them are pink trees, which is less exciting than it could be - I like the white ones much more. (I love the back-lit white magnolia shown here.) I’m still waiting for my dogwood to show signs of life but I’ll post pics of plum blossoms later this weekend.
I’m still astounded by how prolific the blossoms are. The trees are just filled with blooms. My mother, up in Maine under a foot of fresh snow and without power all day yesterday, is terribly jealous. I am equally jealous of her snow so it works out.
I am adorably and annoyingly tired today. I wonder if I slept too much. I know I’ve had plenty of coffee. Really. Plenty.
Happy Weekend, everyone!
