Black Horse in a Cherry Tree

On the UW campus, there's a row full of Cherry trees. Apparently way back in the day when Japan was gifting them to the US, these trees stopped in Washington because they weren't anticipated to survive all of the way to DC. Well, they have certainly flourished, and 2 weeks out of the year they are in full bloom! Please enjoy these pics....... Blossoms
(there's really no black horse)

the whole courtyard...
Oh, and correction on the previous blog... backwards thrust doesn't help the plane land, but rather slow down... =)
