suns along the Mohawk

 One of my favorite Stockade Grande Dames reminded me this afternoon that tulips were “better than sewage” as a focus of attention. Now that the neighborhood has a nice complement of tulips and other blossoms along its streets, I finally have enough flowery images to share here at suns along the Mohawk, despite the (almost total*) failure of this year’s cherry blossom crop. I think they’re a lot better than sewage, and I hope you agree, after checking out our Slideshow.
