The Transient Nature of Life

The cherry trees are blooming and they are full of flowers. I really hope we don't have freezing weather - I would hate to lose them.

My Amaryllis Blooms Again

About five years ago I bought two amaryllis bulbs. After they bloomed I was going to get rid of them, but I really liked the leaves so I kept them. Each year since them they have bloomed. I love it.

The Flower of a Peach

Our peach tree is pretty much in full bloom. I really like the soft pink flowers that this tree produces. It really makes the garden look beautiful.

A Sticky Situation

We went on a hike today in Albuquerque. There were quite a few prickly pears along the trail. I couldn't resist this picture.

Not Actually Hyacinths

Some more flowers popped up in the garden in the last few days. I love these grape hyacinths.

Spring has Sprung

Our garden has really come to life. We have quite a few daffodils blooming - it seems that Spring has Sprung.

Little Cemetery Angel

We stopped at St. John's Cemetery in Plaquemine, LA. They had quite a few older gravestones and lots of angels all around - I particularly liked this one.
