Location is everything

Ear­lier today a very mean and spite­ful friend on Face­book posted pic­tures of the trees in his south­ern Illi­nois town.

We live in the same freakin’ state, but on oppo­site ends. Illi­nois is a lonnnnnng state. This shows how rad­i­cally dif­fer­ent things can be.

I delib­er­ately made the beau­ti­ful Dog­wood blos­som photo smaller. It’s painful enough as it is. Liv­ing in Geor­gia for 8 years brought spring­time much ear­lier than here in north cen­tral Illi­nois. The aller­gies were well worth the visual beauty of so many trees blossoming.
