Take That Cherry Blossoms!

Haha East-coasters! Spring has hit Portland at last! I made it down town this past weekend and caught the cherry blossoms in action this year. Last year I kept missing events for my ignorance of timing. It was about June when I wondered when the cherry blossoms that line the Japanese American Memorial downtown would bloom and nearly October when I wondered when the salmon run would occur. Ha! But this year I'm on top of it. I've caught the cherry blossoms and I'm keeping my fingers crossed on the salmon.

I love Cherry Blossoms. I think we should plant one at dad's house. I wonder how expensive they are?

Ohio University has cherry trees planted all along the curve of the river. They time the Sakura festival to be at peak flower, so the whole town turns out to take lungfuls and pictures. I went last year, but I'm not sorry to miss it this time!
