1. May I send that to my uncle?
I'd like to send that to my uncle. He's in Port Arthur...his whole yard is covered with bluebonnets right now.

That is a gorgeous photo.

3. You bet!
I grew up in Ft. Worth.

My brother sent me this photo this morning.

Have you seen those Bradford pear trees that everyone is planting
in TX now?

They all grow to be the same size (not too big), and they bloom
at exactly the same time (March). They look like trees that we
all drew as children (round balls of leaves atop a straight trunk).

Beautiful.

4. We have them everywhere in Mississippi, too.
They are gorgeous. They're used a lot in commercial settings here.

Our azaleas just finished blooming! I don't have any photos, though.
