It seems that for the past week or so, I've noticed these trees in blossom all over the place. Their color reminds me of the lilacs that begin to bloom in early May up in New York. This tree is a few blocks from my apartment.
On Saturday night we (me, Scott, Keith and Wayne) went to dinner at Savannah's on Central Avenue in St. Pete. On the way down we ran into traffic all backed up from the sellout crowd heading to the Tropicana. The Boston Red Sox were in town and unfortunately for them, lost all 3 games in the series to the Tampa Bay Rays.

On Sunday afternoon, Una Voce (well, some of the chorus) sang the Star Spangled Banner at the Dunedin Blue Jays / Sarasota Cubs game.
It's a nice stadium, but as you can see, there was hardly anyone there. But a beautiful day for a baseball game!

Those trees are Jacarandas, native to Brazil. They are a sticky mess when the flowers start to drop so don't park under them!
