The Most Spectacular

I think one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen was a few years back at the DC Cherry Blossoms. It was a perfect day and the blooms were absolutely spectacular - like cotton candy puffs.
So when the gardens were saying that their blossoms were blooming, I knew I had to get there before the rain came! It was worth it!!!

But first, a greeting from Reepacheep the most valiant of mice.




Blooming beauties!
