Springtime in Williamsburg

The trees were blooming along Nassau Street in Colonial Williamsburg this past weekend. Spring is definitely here, if my raging allergies needed any confirmation.

It’s interesting to see such a wide variety of blooming trees; the DC area is rightly renowned for the spectacular cherry and pear blossoms during this time of year, but they overshadow everything else. Make no mistake: the sheer concentration of those trees (and not just along the Tidal Basin) makes for quite a sight, and shouldn’t be missed.

But it’s nice to see some variety, too.
