The silence on Alpine-L is deafening! Here we seem to be in the midst of
another miraculous spring (albeit we have had almost no precipitation): it has
been quite cool with light frosts (although one night into the low twenties did
fry the early magnolias ten days ago: many in shadier aspects made it through,
however, and there are some magnificent Magnolia x soulangeana blooming
again!). Right now the flowering trees are mostly at or near peak (all the
plums/pears/peaches/cherries/crabs/redbuds/etc. etc. making for lively
streetscapes.) The bright but cool days encourage everything to bloom their
heads off and last forever. Things have been in such suspended animation I've
had a chance to capture some things that often go dashing by, so to speak. I
posted this link on the NARGS forum, but I suspect not all of you are dedicated
forumists yet:

And I bet that your own gardens are all starting to explode as well! Hope you
all too are having an enchanting April! Don't you love springtime?
