Springtime has come! The flowers are blooming~! I’m very happy about this.

We have cherry trees and even actual Japanese sakura trees in the Seattle area, so I’m not unfamiliar with flowering trees. However, there are definitely a lot more of them here in Ogaki. I’ve really been enjoying my commute to and from work. There are so many beautiful flowers to admire en route!

Here’re the blooms from a plum tree near Ogaki Station that I’m particularly fond of. This tree was an early bloomer, but it’s still going strong.
