The Magnolia in the front garden. Its flowers didn't last very long, partly due to the wind. It's off to the side of the house, and when winds blow, they tend to strike it.
A photograph of our church, showing some of the spring flowers, The grounds are really pretty at this time of the year. And being Spring, the sky is overcast!
This view is also from church grounds, but this time looking east at the Cascade Mountains, which still had a moderate amount of snow..
I didn't realise that the Rosy Glow Barberry bushes flowered. They're a little hard to see, but are the yellow coloured bits.
The lilac bush in flower. The flowers are quite long lasting, as three weeks later they are much the same as shown in this picture.
