The rain has stopped, the sun is shining and there are flowers everywhere! All along the roadside from Illinois to Ohio we saw red rosebud trees in bloom, as well as a white flowering tree I don't know the name of. Maples are getting their red seed pods, too. But the best sight was in Cincinnati. We took a walk around the block at Gene's granddaughter's house and saw tulips, hyacinth and sweet smelling lilac bushes. All the flowers I remember from my childhood. I even remember picking a bouquet of tulips for my mother when I was about five. . . and getting in big trouble for that. We had to go to the neighbor and apologize for ruining her Spring garden.
