It's a death-defying act you won't believe
I had to mask up to drop something off for the upstairs neighbors, so I took my camera and went to check on the neighborhood index of flowering trees.

The cherry blossoms have achieved liftoff!

Also backlighting.

Ready for their close-up.

I had previously believed this tree to be another, earlier-flowering cherry, but a bandanna-masked passerby spotted me with my camera and cheerfully told me to check out "the beautiful almond tree at the end of the street." So now I have no idea. It's pink.

Shadow tree.

Shadow ladder and reflection tree.

This magnolia just seemed so enthusiastic.

And I haven't a clue, but it was extravagantly green.
Today was the first day I've really seen a majority of people wearing masks on the streets—some handmade, some medical, some kerchiefs and scarves. Boston has instituted a curfew and the federal government is just straight-up trying to kill us. At the moment cases are predicted to peak over the week of Passover. I hope the holiday holds true to its name.

Yeah, I think last I read, the UW model is projecting the nationwide peak to be on April 15 or 16 :-/

Thank you! I really like our local trees.
The UW cherry blossoms are still there....
That is a magnificent surf of blossom. It's nice that they have a camera running.

Oh, good, that's not on my father's birthday.
