Where Have All the Flowers Gone?

Falling cherry blossoms at Wadsworth Electric, Astoria, Oregon They're making beautiful carpets on the ground, and the trees are growing new leaves.

Falling cherry blossoms at Wadsworth Electric, Astoria, Oregon I couldn't help but take a photo of this corner, home of Wadsworth Electric at 17th and Exchange.

Falling cherry blossoms at Wadsworth Electric, Astoria, OregonThe cherry blossoms may be falling and the picturesque carpets soon to be gone, but so many other flowers are just coming into their own. I'm still waiting for the huge rhododendrons flanking the post office to open up, but until they do, I've got another rhodie picture for you tomorrow. Actually, I'm posting a few days in advance, so by the time you read this those huge bushes could be in bloom. It looks like they're going to have a magnificent crop of flowers this year, and I'll be sure to post them in a week or so.

Ooooooh! Fragrant pink snow!!!

I especially like the shot with the yellow of the dandelion contrasting so beautifully with the pink of the fallen petals. Beautiful!

Trying to figure my way around. I clicked on your comment and it brought me to your blog. Enjoyed the fallen blossoms. I would never have guessed it was in front of Wadsworth's. Thanks for sharing those small little places of beauty.

Yep, we've had carpets of pink blossoms blowing all over the place lately. They sure are pretty. It's too bad they can't stay around longer.
