We finally managed to get a week free and make a trip to Tennessee in late April for a visit. For once we were lucky on the weather, and we actually hit the peak of the spring flower season. Here's my mother out checking out her Japanese Maple, red azaleas, and flowering dogwoods The whole town of Dyer was in bloom like this, and was prettier than I've seen it in years. Could not have asked for better weather either. Of course a week after we left for home, they got several nights of hard freezes from the same front that dumped 3½" of snow on Waco! |

Here's a view looking east of the "hill" where I grew up. My mother tells me that when I was 2 or 3 years old we went with my great aunt Laverne Hutchison Turner to Union City to buy that pink dogwood tree. She paid all of $1.50 for it! That would have been about 1945! |

Angie and Mother are checking out all the spring flowers blooming at the side of her house. Her dogwoods were in full bloom too. |

As usual we stayed with my cousin Natalee Reed at their house just outside town. Their trees were in full bloom too. |
