When I drive down here, I always want to catch that spot where I start seeing green foliage. But that spot always eludes me. I just realize at some point that I’ve been driving through green for a while. Yes, green is happy. . . . See that one tree that looks like it might be dead? It might not be. There are some trees down here that lose their leaves in the fall.
I can imagine that drive, and looking for the changes…your description sounds like many transitions in life, right? I don’t remember about trees that lose their leaves in fall there specifically, but I’m aware that some do, even in semi-tropical environments. It’s more complex than we imagine….

Every cold, cold morning here, your Florida photos warm my day with green and delicate beauty. Thank you.

I love this one too, for the vague echos of pastoral English landscapes. Rounded, light green foliage is a happy thing. For me anyway.

I think you’re right about other changes not being noticed. And everything seems to be more complex than we imagine!
