Magnolia Blossom

I live a bit north to have a magnolia tree, however, my stepdaughter has one planted in her yard in a sheltered spot. This image was inspired from a trip to Tennessee a couple of years ago. We were driving along and I saw all of these pink blossoms covering a tree at a miniature golf course. My husband is used to me saying, "Quick, pullover!" or "Quick turn right ahead!" So quick turn right ahead he did. He is such a good sport, as is the rest of my family.
