1. UW Campus. I've been watching for the cherry blossoms since I started walking around the university when I started early March. They finally showed up last Monday. I was there early in the morning and it was glorious! Too many people, I thought, until I went back Saturday with dh and saw the meaning of OMG people. Anyhow, I went by every day this week except Friday, when I wandered down to the water and today when I stayed home.

There are loads of photos on my Flickr account but here are few anyhow.











One of the things that was beautiful and/or fun was seeing women in kimonos, people holding up dogs, and the UW women's swim team in bathing suits on a chilly morning.

There are flowers all over campus, the fountain had been turned on for the duration, and we had several days of beautiful weather this week which made it all even more incredible. Yay Spring in Washington, one of the most spectacular times.

2. We were supposed to go to Vancouver to see my aunt, but my mom balked this morning and refused to go, coming with excuse after excuse until it was too late. Funny exchange with my siblings.

Sigh.

3. Our eclipse trip is coming and I'm both excited and nervous. We tried and failed to get day passes at a few TX state parks, so we'll be spending a night in San Antonio and heading west early on the morning of... like 4am early. We'll probably get killed by setting a foot on some rancher's territory. Fingers crossed for good weather!
