If C.S. Lewis is right, then we will experience something infinitely greater when we get to heaven. I like to think when we pass through those pearly gates, it will feel like we've just been given a pair of celestial glasses, with pixelation that'll put Sony to shame! Everything will seem more real, as if all these years we've been living in a dream, enjoying a reflection of the real thing. Until then, enjoy this reflection of the real thing, Pacific Northwestern style. I hope it makes you yearn for heaven. :)
The trees rolled out a red carpet of blossoms, welcoming Spring to our neighborhood. If you look closely, you can see where Spring traipsed across the petals, transforming the dead ground into earth laden with decadent flowers.
Have I ever mentioned that it's a secret dream of mine to live in a tree covered in blossoms? I'm thinking about moving into this tree.
This is the view from my driveway. Notice the lack of smog on the horizon. Believe it or not, t's actually difficult to deeply inhale this air. I'm so used to chewing my air.

I wonder if each blossom is different, like snowflakes.
A diamond in the rough.
The daffodils are Spring's finest form of efflorescence!
So, thanks to your post of gorgeous pictures and creative titles, I have now taken a step away from "chewing" my air. Thanks, Sarah- my jaw needed a good break!
