We are blessed with a gorgeous bloom of a magnolia tree every spring.
Thing is, if you blink, you miss it.
It's there for just about a week. It peaked on Friday morning (this is from Thurs PM) and after a massive storm on Fri. night, the end had begun.
I tell people that this is my favorite week of the year, but it's sad in a way. Reminds you how fleeting all living things are in their own way.
