Lilac Buds

Lilac Buds by Ginny Griffin.
I grew up on the east coast and and am often asked what I miss now that I live in southern California. One of the top things on the list will always be the smell of lilacs. It is one of the smells of my childhood.

I so love lilacs. We have some in our yard, but they haven't begun to bloom yet.

Great shot!

When I was a kid, some 10 bajillion years ago, we used to have a lilac bush next to our house. Us neighborhood girls would use it as our place to meet and talk about the neighborhood boys. Beautiful capture and thanks for the memories. =)

I guess I shouldn't have said there are no lilacs here.... perhaps they are a different variety... but at least where I am they are not nearly as common, large or smell as wonderful... but the star jasmine is a close runner-up. :)
