MBMouse, your parent's house still reminds me of the house I lived in in Mass. We had TWO magnolia trees!

You are doing such a wonderful job of taking care of Trixie. She looks so healthy!

I always forget about ebay. That's a great way to buy a camera, isn't it?

Are you stopping along the way? That's a long time to get here.

Of course, it took us the same amount of time, but we had some horrible technical difficulties!

I'll be thinking of you!

Hi hik....yep, we're definitely stopping along the way!! We are driving two cars and eight hours is about a max for both of us in one day!! So, we will stop Saturday night somewhere around Cape Canaveral area, and Sunday night we will be around Columbia, SC and then we should arrive in Knoxville on Monday afternoon (hopefully before the 5 o'clock traffic time)!!!!!

Unless there is an accident, traffic is not really bumper-to-bumper. You'll be fine. The trees are starting to put on a show. Wait until you see!

Spent the day out at the folks place for Easter and tried the camera out on the beautiful pink Magnolia tree in their front yard. Wanted to share with y''all. I am SOOO excited about this camera and can not wait to have some time to figure it out and take some picture taking trips with it!

These were taken in Rogersville TN 3-23-2008

AHA! That's what those pink trees are I've been seeing. Great shots, good to know.

Good luck with the weather, too. So far, Monday looks like a good arrival day, weather-wise. Sunday, Tuesday, or Wednesday, not so much. The good thing is, you don't have to worry about major unpacking (yet).

Maybe not. Those are not common trees you would see around a city or town unless in someones yard. You may however be seeing Red Buds (which are pink/purple and NOT red), cherry trees or you might have some dogwoods blooming out that way which can also be pink.
These blooms on the saucer magnolia (thanks allicat, we checked, it IS a saucer) are about 4-5 inches tall, the ones on the cherry is clump of blooms about an inch and a half or so. The Red Buds are little bitty flowers that climb up the branches of the tree. The Dogwoods are one flower that is about 2 inches in size.

Smile Beautiful shots, mbmouse!

Mb, the shots of the Saucer Magnolias are beautiful! We had lovely ones in our front yard all the way up in MI. They were so hardy.

One of the nice things about these Magnolias is that although the leaves fall in the autumn, they produce a flower pod that stays all winter decorating the bare tree. The pods look like large ***** willow puffs. So pretty.

That new camera is doing just great! Or is it the camera person?
