Saturday in the Park

Between all the busy-ness and business of today, I got to spend a couple hours outside. Everyone keeps posting all these Spring images everywhere so I thought I'd do the same. If not in attempt to savor the season then at least to show off.


This tree is one of the main reasons I bought my house. It's this beautiful about three weeks out of the year and I can see it from the window. Otherwise, it's a mess and not very attractive for the other 49 weeks. You see what I base decisions on now, huh?










The tulips are holding on for a few more days.











And finally, Colorado's attempt at a Palm tree.















I would so not make it if I had to live in the city.

The tree is an apple, of the crab variety.
The tulips are my favorite, too.

those tulips are so full!

I'm no good if I don't have grass around either! :)

The tulips are beautiful. They don't do so well down here. I guess we don't get cold enough for us to warm up for them or something.
