When we moved into our home (on my 31st birthday) 17 years ago we were so excited! My husband worked in San Francisco and we decided to move about 60 miles north of The City to look for a house at a better price. The home we found had been completely refurbished inside - new carpets, linoleum, paint, fixtures, etc. but still had all the original charm - lift windows and a beautiful 1951 Wedgewood stove (that still cooks like a dream). It was perfect for us. One surprise though came about 2 weeks after we moved in. A large tree right outside our bedroom window began to bloom. This rather ordinary looking tree was all at once transformed by these amazing pale pink flowers in such abundance that when the wind blew tiny petals wafted down like a flurry of snowflakes. One look at that beautiful tree each year and we know... spring is almost here.
