In Bloom

Ben and I took an unexpected 2 mile walk today because we had to drop the car off for routine maintenance and it wasn't going to be ready for several hours so we walked home.  The flowers have really started blooming around here-it is almost spring after all, and luckily I had my camera to take some pictures.

I love the palm trees in the picture above.  They are lined up in the median to the road and remind me that we are living on an island now, even if it isn't a tropical island.  :)
