Besides the beautiful weather and gorgeous mountain landscapes, my favorite thing about spring in Denver has been these beautiful pink-ish-purple trees that are blooming all around campus. I comment on how pretty they are on a daily basis (much to the annoyance of whoever is walking with me since I've been doing this for nearly a month now). For the longest time I had no idea what they were so I've just been calling them 'the pink-ish-purple trees'. After some serious google research I think I've eliminated crabapple, pink dogwood and kwanzan cherry trees, and am fairly certain they're either Eastern Redbud trees or Oklahoma Redbud trees. Who knew I had it in me to be a horticulturalist? Anyway, the purpose of this ramble was really just to show you the pretty tree....
