One of the things I like about Spring is the beautiful flowering trees and bushes and other plants. We have taken a few pictures of them!
The trees have been fabulous this spring BUT the weather has been extra warm and the blossoms quickly turned to leaves.
Here is a tree halfway between blossoms and leaves...
One thing I DO NOT like about the glorious blossoms is POLLEN! Until five or six years ago it was not a problem. Now it is. Driving all over the sapworks for church and other business makes my eyes itch and weep. Even my skin is itchy.
GOOD NEWS! When I was at the Dorr Farms store purchasing some fresh vegetables we were chatting. I was complaining a little about the itchy eyes. The Mrs. said I need to eat a spoonful of honey at bedtime to help things. IT DOES! Local raw honey so it is the same honey that has that particular pollen. It also helps with sleep. Win-win!
Beautiful blossoms on a snowy day here with no power for 8 hours😀
