Lewisburg Alphabet: B is for Blossoms

Welcome to the Lewisburg Alphabet!The weather is warming up, the days are growing longer, my favorite ice cream place has opened for the season... Friends, it seems that spring is upon us, and there is little that is more glorious than Lewisburg in the spring. And spring flowers are nice, but we get some incredible flowering trees.Right now, even as we speak, this is happening outside my front door. Dig my ornamental pear tree.And look at my squat-but-hardy hyacinths.And ooh, Lordie. I've got a punk rock pussy willow in my back yard.But in a few short weeks, Lewisburg will be bursting at the seams with flowering trees and blossoms. (And pollen; local peeps, stock up on Claritin now.)My ornamental pear will be stylin' in my front yard.The pussy willows will be furry and lush.And all over town, it will look something like this.And speaking of pretty streets...The Miller's spectacular magnolia will be in bloom.Meanwhile, down at the river...And check out this bee, having its way with the flowering tree by the Lutheran church.Lewisburg in the spring. Blossoms everywhere! This is what I get to toddle around in every day, and I feel so fortunate. It's a visual feast that I am happy to take part in.Come back soon to see what's in store for C!
