visiting trees

[eub]

Patchy clouds all day, and I wanted sun to go around and take pictures of trees, before they leaf out fully. Around noon the sun came through for a while, but by the time I was ready to go out, it was behind a large raft of cloud. I waited, and took pictures of the African violet's almost-flower.

When a mostly-clear patch showed, I went out on a tour of nearby trees I had noticed at various times while driving around, and jotted down on a parking receipt.

Pictures.

I like the loose flowering of this lilac.

the fellow on the porch says his landlord says it's the second-oldest maple in the city.
