Last week was fine, with sun. With the weekend it became cold and windy. Seems as if April came back.
I look forward for the sun !!!

Our "pom pom " trees are starting to fade. I love when the pink petals fall on the ground. Last night when I walked, I felt like a bride. Enjoy your week.

Great photo! I have a Kwanzan cherry tree too. The blooms on mine are starting to go by. During a thunderstorm yesterday afternoon many turned into pom-pom confetti. Glad things are better for you.

We have a very large cherry tree on our property...it's just beautiful! Eighty degrees here last weekend...summer is almost here! :)
The Japanese celebrate the cherry blossom season to help us appreciate and understand the fragility of life...and to enjoy every minute of our journey! Seems to me that we should do this every day of the year! Enjoy!

I was going to try for a haiku about your "pom-poms" but apparently I'm undercaffeinated, so you only get one line:
Pretty pink pom-poms.
You're welcome.

Beautiful! I find myself wanting to bury my face in those blossoms. I'm glad to hear all is well. we'll hit 80something today, 90 tomorrow (which I would gladly send some of that your way) then back to cooler temps for the weekend.

We had that perfect blue sky yesterday. The weekend...rain and more rain. We were lucky, though, compared to our friends in Nashville.
