Azaleas

I've been watching the changes week by week as spring unfolds.  It was cool early in the week, and we had a big storm Wednesday, but of a sudden, at the end of the week, the deep pink blooms of azaleas appeared throughout the neighborhood.  The next several weeks will be a festival of color.

It's a wonderful season that I enjoy each year.  At times it seems almost unreal - like an over-the-top exaggeration of reality.  In addition to the bright color everywhere, most days are pleasant to walk to and from work.

The heat and humidity of summer will come soon enough.  In the meantime, I get to enjoy pleasant walks among the azaleas.
