Love is a many splendored thing

Spring has officially settled over Atlanta. The flowering dogwoods and azaleas are the sure sign that she has arrived (p.s.-in case you were wondering early April is the PERFECT time to visit). It's not just the plants though, that know spring has arrived. Creatures large and small have caught the twitterpated bug, and as it happens, so has a local resident at the property. I was working outside of the temple apartment building yesterday when an eldery man came walking down the sidewalk whistling this kind of enchanting tune with great gusto. We chatted a minute and I asked him about the song. It is an "oldie but goodie" called "Love is a many splendored thing", a 1955 creation that was quite the thing in its day. In honor of dogwoods in their glory and spring in the air carried by the tune of a classic love song, take a listen and relish in another lovely April.

p.s. again--I like Frank Sinatra or Nat King Cole's version better, but this is nice, just the same.

That IS a great song, no matter who sings it.
