"When It Snowed Pink Petals" The annual #CherryBlossomFestival countdown has started here in the #WashingtonMetroArea! We even have a little cherry tree in our front yard!

This hand-painted digital piece was created in Corel Painter from one of my own photos, taken down at the tidal basin in #DC several years ago.

"When It Snowed Pink Petals" ... well, the annual #CcherryBlossomFestival countdown has started here in the #WashingtonMetroArea! It's talked about every time the local weather guys come on ... there are even contests to see who can guess the peak day. We even have a little cherry tree in our front yard!

Neighbors down the street from the house in which I grew up had a magical tree in their front yard. Looking back down through the tunnel of time, I'm not sure now if it was a cherry tree or a pear tree ... if it bloomed pink or if it bloomed white in the spring. It doesn't really matter.

I just remember standing beneath it and thinking it was snowing. How excited I was. I must have been really little at the time ... at a time when I had not a clue what things like seasons were all about. Not a clue about weather. Why I'd go outside one day and be covered in cherry blossoms ... or kicking golden leaves around ... or sliding down a snowy hill in a sled ... I had no idea. It all just was what it was and I never questioned it.

I figured it out eventually .. but I still find days like these no less magical.
