I posted this picture of Manhattan, which I snapped yesterday, to let you know that I am thinking of you, but I am working hard on a writing project right now. My deadline is Friday, and I am hopeful that I will deliver a good product. As you know, Friday evening, I will be visiting AMNH's sneak preview of their new mammals exhibit, so I won't be doing much…

When I lived in beautiful Seattle, there were lilac bushes in my yard, and mostly everywhere else, too. So every day, I would cut fresh lilac flowers for my little house (which I shared with 46 lories) and the entire place smelled glorious. It is the smell of lilacs that mean spring to me.

Manhattan Roses.

These roses are deep red on the inside and cream-colored on the outside. I find the color combination interesting, even though I am not sure if I like these roses.

In the wee hours of Saturday, the temperature was somewhere close to 38 degrees Fahrenheit at my apartment, then, hours later, it reached 88 degrees -- a 50 degree difference! Today, it is predicted to reach 90 degrees in Manhattan, so I had to celebrate by roaming around the Park Avenue median on the Upper East Side, photographing the blossoms.

By any other name would smell as sweet."
