here is a quick collage I put together of the random dandelion photos I took with my point&shoot at Dixie..

Big Moon?

We apparently had this moon that was the biggest..or closest it's been in 20yrs. About 14 percent larger and 30 percent brighter..... I guess. Unfortunately, we had cloud coverage when I would actually be able to see this "big" moon with good comparison....so the photos I have of the moon are from it almost straight up in the sky..just like any other moon at this angle:

Haze

A few days ago we had this haze that just stuck around for two days straight. It was like we had a big fire the day before. It was strange.

SPRING!!

Spring is here....officially on a thunderstorm day, but around these parts it shows up a lot sooner:




This is my favorite tree around here. It is in this GORGEOUS blossom state for not a long time. After this it turns into a plum tree with the dark purple-red leaves, not quite as pretty as these blossoms are.
