just one; and then a million mimosa trees -for (me!) sandra, tvgp
so CH = cerebral hyperlink. have i abbreviated how... when our conscious becomes aware of something for the first time? and then...because everyone has a gazillion of these experiences within their life time..
CAMF? consciously aware moving forward...
i dont know, i'll keep working on it, feel free to send suggestions.. but,
sexy & i were on a walk, i stopped to awe over this tree... how gorgeous! the way these bright pink to white, slight ambre (?) pom-pom like, flowers sit write on top of these dark, pretty leaves..
then i started to consider.. as it had been suggested here and there.. ' a tree id app! '
and, i was so proud of myself.. not having the aid of my children to help me add an app on my phone
how cool it would be, to just take a picture of the tree you want to learn more about, and... "!"
/hat off here to e.o. wilson..
anyway,
so, that's what i wanted.. to take a picture of the tree.. upload it to the app, and then get to know the name of the tree..
but what happened, is that i looked for an app, thought i did such a great job, installing.. etc.
but then inadvertently ended up with a gazillion thumbnail pictures of every tree in san jose on my phone, and would still have to be able to id one to find one; know what i mean..
so -thank you here to my son, who lickity-split, uninstalled the app..
and instead, (what i should have done in the first place) i showed a picture and asked nancy at alden lane nursery, and she knew write away..
"i think that's a mimosa tree..."
and sure enough, i learned it is also called a silk tree.. but anyway..
i saw my very first mimosa tree in front of noble elementary school parking lot the summer of 2020. and what a beauty.
but that's not true.
what is true is that I NOTICED (became aware of) a mimosa tree for the first time in front of noble elementary school parking lot the summer of 2020.. ive seen them a gazillion times, over 50+ years without ever noticing them.
but now..
they are throughout our neighborhood here, and that neighborhood over there.
and they are up and down a street i lived on in pleasanton many years; never noticed...
but now,
i see them everywhere. and when they are in bloom... pretty as it gets.
In Jesus Name, "mimosa cheers! & amen"
