spring is sprung
More than a month early, the famous cherry blossoms in Branch Brook Park are in bloom. The park in Newark was designed by Frederick Law Olmsted, who designed Central Park and there are more of these beautiful trees in Newark than in Washington, D.C. I had not been there since I was a child and had forgotten how magnificent these blossoms are.

What joy this must be after winter!
Really gorgeous. A delight every spring...and this time early.
How beautiful. It must be wonderful to see it for real.
Rayna thank you for posting these wonderful springtime blossom photos; here in the Rockies the blossoms are still held within the bud---your photos brought a springtime happy feeling as I observe this warm sunshine day and know that soon we will have blossoms here - the sun shines warm and bright today.
