But I fell in love with them the first time I visited Florida (in 1966), and I have never lost that love.
Every once in a while I must travel to where they thrive, to nourish my soul. So I did that just that recently I spent time in the land of palm trees. Although it was winter in Florida, I didn't mind the cool weather one bit.
I can look at palm trees all day long.
And, seeing them during or after sunset is even better.
Beauty can be found almost anywhere. And when I see these trees, I can hope that spring will come to upstate New York one day. It won't be this week.
Or next week. Or next month. Or the month after that.
I couldn't wait. So spouse and I traveled about 1,200 miles (1931 km) to escape winter. I know some of you were expecting a snow picture, and there will be more snow, trust me. Just not today.

ReplyDeleteI love palm trees too.
ReplyDeleteMy father has a palm tree in his front yard. We have to be careful when the wind really blows. Those fronds come off.
ReplyDeleteSince there no palm tree here in North Idaho, I do find them amazing
ReplyDeleteI love the way Palms sway in the wind.. We are lucky to have Palms growing everywhere.. in fact we have to watch out as the falling leaf can really hurt someone standing below!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shot! I love palm trees, too. ♥ My parents lived in southern California for many years, so I got to see them fairly often.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely shot! I love sunsets and then you know the trees. The palms are a beautiful variety and south India has more than I north.
ReplyDeleteThanks for joining Alana. See you tomorrow :)
P.S. I am waiting for a snow laden tree :P
