Blissful Blue Skies

We have had more than our fair share of gray skies and storms over the past few weeks. So, when the sun came out this afternoon, this dogwood absolutely glowed.

Flowering trees amaze me. What? Leaves that change from chartreuse and deep green into bright reds and oranges and yellows aren't enough? Mother Nature thought, "Yes. I'll put flowers on them for a couple of weeks in the spring. Just for fun!"

I love that.
