A Blizzard of Petals!

Dear Diary,

I wasn't able to make a very good photograph of this experience but it is a memory I want to keep. The locust trees let loose their petals as the wind came up and swirled them around like giant snowflakes. Even the dragonflies ran for cover. It lasted for several minutes and the ground was covered with white petals.

This triggered an ancient memory of a little girl - 7 or 8? - sitting under an apple trip in her back yard as the breeze showered her with petals. 55 years later and that memory is still vivid.

Unlocking the past while experiencing the present...
