April 17: Cherry blossoms

The cherry blossom tree is truly a sight to behold, especially when it is in full riotous bloom. Homaro Cantu 

This has got to be one of the most exciting moments this year....seeing the cherry blossoms begin to flower! Spring is actually here (I think!!) I am hoping that my continuous optimism will make it stay, even though rain and cold temperatures have been forecast! Hey, at least it is not snow!!
