On one of the last days of April, the beautiful tree down at the Inwood Hill park peninsular was showing its fast fading colors. I thought it fitting somehow that an elderly couple had chosen to sit under it for my last photo of it. and of course the elusive but absolutely beautiful lilac has been a popular favorite in May and a humble geranium holds third spot...in honor of my daughter and her family who have housed me here in NYC for over a month while they settle down after the birth of their new (second) baby...it is one of her favorite flowers. And now I have a confession to make as we admire this purple beauty...I am going to have to cut the adjectives, because I have included 17 more of my favorite photos from May, especially these ones from our trip to the New York Botanical Gardens last weekend. please feel free to skip them if you don't have the time to peruse but I think you may enjoy them, especially these cat tails and this striking one as well ad now we have some from...

the lilac was just beautiful as I passed it tthis morning, tucked away high, almost out of sight and the leaves on this tree looked like they were on fire Hope you had a wonderful weekend. Lazy days with kids and grand kids Brunch in the cafe A walk in the park skype chats with more grandchildren from afar A daughter back in the kitchen cooking up a storm A baby sleeping 6 hours in the night A little boy whose cough is getting much better What more could one wish for? Thankyou God.
