I feel very fortunate to have what has affectionately been named The Whimsical Tree residing directly outside my bedroom window. This amazing tree is like no other tree I have ever seen. The most spectacular thing about it is that, although now it is full of pink sprouts of what resemble something close to fiber-optic wires, come May or June the flowers will fall off and be replaced with these insane, white cotton-balls that like to shed all over the place. (I will be sure to post a picture of the cotton balls whenever they arrive this year...)

If you have ever paid particular attention to Dr. Seuss' illustrations, and seen the crazy trees I have seen since moving here, you might come to the same conclusion as I have--that Dr. Seuss must have visited Mexico! "Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It's not." Dr. Seuss The Lorax
Please make note of the new Texas address on the sidebar. If I already informed you of the new address, you will notice that this one is a little different. That's how things roll here... they give you a new address and then later, after you tell everyone and change your magazines, etc, they let you know that the first was wrong. Viva Mexico.
