I lived in Macon when the Cherry Blossom Festival began. It certainly has matured into a nice event, although I can't agree with dying poodles pink for the week!

Spring came so early in Georgia this year that I wondered if the cherry blossoms would be gone by the festival. A few hung on, it seems, though the leaves kind of obscured them.
I had a pink poodle once, Nut! Some neighbors dyed their white poodle puppy pink and brought it over for me because my other dog had died. My dad was hugely disgusted by the pink fur, lol.
