It’s Chinese New Year today and a new Conjunction! The New Moon, Mars, and Venus shine in the Western Sky tonight. If not for my friend Andy I probably wouldn’t have remembered this! Check him out here. Thank you Andy!!!
I wasn’t able to venture further than my front yard to photograph it so, here you have it. Mars is the teenie tiny red dot between the Moon and Venus.

My Flowering Plum tree is in major booming mode. The bees are buzzing all around the branches, and it’s raining delicate pink pedals on my patio.

P52 8/52: Yosemite Falls from Swinging Bridge
Copyright © 2015 Deborah M. Zajac, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED
It was a gorgeous sunny day in Yosemite. In February! The little bit of snow we had up here last week from the 3 day storm has all melted.
The meadows are brown, and dry since there has been very little rain, and next to no snow this year, but
I gotta tell ya…no matter what time of year it is or the conditions, this view never gets old!
