Everything is green.
My hike last week revealed hilly paths that I remembered being red dust and dirt and rocks, unforgiving and hot...
But now, they are green and blooming and the dust is still damp, and their is even moss or clover like greenery growing on the path edges..
But we all know that this cannot last.
San Diego is still a dessert.
Sigh.
I miss the east coast.
The tree outside my window is blooming with buds and spring green leaves...Funny though, thisi s the first year I have noticed that it buds at all. It spends 75% of the year dropping leaves, a sticky sap substance, and looking dried up and dying. It typically is all spindly and scraggly, and unnatractive. The sap it drops leaves the sidewalks slippery if it rains or mists.
But today I realize how alive it is.
Now I feel bad for saying that theu should have cut them all down...
They are not really dead. This makes me happy for some reason.
If I knew how to post a picture, I would take and post one of it. I just wish that I knew what type it was...
