The plum trees came into bloom while I was away.*

Did the cherry trees seem to bloom in more distinct waves this year -- pink, then white, then puffball pink? It seemed like it to me -- maybe it's just that Cook Street Village blooms differently than James Bay, where I remember streets of pale and bright mixed, leading to various vague internal ramblings about aesthetic juxtapositions during various vague external ramblings through its streets.

The plum trees* are also pink (or white) but a much more satisfying pink, darker and more lipsticky without ever being in danger of becoming red.

There is a strange message on our voicemail from a hotel in New Brunswick. [livejournal.com profile] inlandsea?

*I think they are plum trees. They look like cherry trees, only not. Actually, I have no idea what they are, but for the purposes of making me seem like an observant fan of the natural, let's assume plum trees. Thank you.

I could be wrong, I'm on the wrong coast and I've been away from all these things for so long but I think that you're likely seeing malus in bloom - apple and apple family, crab apples and whatnot. I don't remember a lot of plums in Victoria. I'm cool with being wrong.

PS - my boss quit. His boss encouraged me to apply. Posting here

I think you're a pretty observant fan of the natural even without the categorization.
