Smell-o-vision


Visit Michelle at the informative Nature Notes Thursday to learn something new.

When I walk and even drive through my neighborhood, I can smell the blooming trees. It's like perfume wafting on the breeze. When I walk I sometimes hit a path so fragrant I stop and take a few deep sniffs. I took this photo last night at twilight. I think this tree is beautiful. It's in the crazy neighbor's backyard and it looks like an explosion of pink flowers.



I really wish we had smell-o-vision so you could scratch your computer screen and smell my neighborhood.

I have been wishing for scratch and sniff computers for a long time...that tree is beautiful.

BTW, what kind of crazy neighbor do you have--have I missed something?

When I typed that it occurred to me maybe I hadn't told you all about my crazy neighbor. I will soon.
