Beautiful Garden

My son and I moved back to our part of the house before my mom arrived from her 3 week vacation.  During the 3 weeks that she was away, part of our house (the one adjacent to our living room and quarters) was undergoing a major repair.  Most of the house was blanketed in dust (what with the gravel, cement and tile-cutting, etc.) so we moved to my mom's third level area which is across the old area, both buildings separated by a small private playground.

What I loved most about my mom's room is her balcony garden where I'd have an outdoor lunch.  Overlooking her balcony is a park outlined by cherry blossom trees, gifts to our city from the Japanese government at the end of World War II.  At the time I took this picture, only a top patch had delicate pink cherry blossoms on the tree.
