This is not my actual street name, but a couple of weeks a year it should be...glad I took this today because the rain is moving in and most of them will be gone sooner than I'd like : ( (btw way this only one side of the street).
I am very sorry I haven't visited many blogs, the problems with Am3 has really locked me out and all I can do right now is hope this actually gets posted. I'll keep trying...
Thank you for all your support! Am3 is the greatest photo commutiy of ALL!!!!

Jen! This really is pink lane!!! I was a bit upset that our cherry is gone - but I hadn't been out to the stores for days (been kinda drizzly and cloudy, etc.) Anyway, today I went to the store, and to my amazement there was still a lot of pink up the main drag - it is Apple Blossom, like yours - but it's starting to go brown with all the rain. The trees don't hang as low as yours do - they are pretty high and hadn't realized that they were indeed Apple Blossom. Anyway, I got a surprise, the Dogwood has started to bloom out of nowhere - so I posted one for you.
It is hard to get around. When Amy complained I had no trouble till today - so I deleted all my temporary internet files and re-booted (when I haven't been able to get through before it has been mainly because I was running low on RAM. But, tonight, its awful - the pictures are so small and a lot of space on either side (three days of thumbnails on the left). I thought it was something I had changed or set wrong in Internet Options, but now I don't think so because it's not only me having a hard time. Anyway, if you can get around at all - the dogwood is there. If not there will be some more - when it is thicker. :-(

Wow! What an incredible contrast of colours and explosion of life! Clearly it's not just Japan that boasts extraordinary amounts of blossoms. Super shot Jen!

@Stu: Thanks Stu...They are all over the neighborhood, we should change the neighborhoods name to "Pretty in Pink" this time of year!!
Wonderful blossoms Jen! I agree with the site running slow. I have had trouble accessing it as well. It is raining here in Michigan too but I'm hoping to get out with my camera this weekend when it is sunny. Again nice post. It is cheerful!

It indeed is a pink lane Jen, and really wonderful place to live in. Good shot, and very colorful, with lovely blue sky. :)

@Art Monkey: My favorite time of year next to fall when the leaves change!!
That is really cool, thanks for posting it. I bet even after the rain though it still looks good with a pink carpet across all the yards.

@DTW: Right now they are just soggy pink blossoms...glad I got my pictures in while they lasted! Thanks!
I'm jealous of you for having not only those pretty pink blossoms to look at, but a yard for them to be in. I'm an apartment dweller and I have to make a conscious effort to step on something other than concrete or asphalt every now and then.

@Mike Cash: Well you could come over and mow my yard...LOL!! I don't have a huge yard, but it is nice to enjoy some grass between my toes this time of year.
