The jacarandas are in bloom and there is…
Purple Haze all in my brain, lately things don’t seem the same,
actin’ funny but I don’t know why.
‘Scuse me while I kiss the sky.
Purple Haze all around,
don’t know if I’m coming up or down…
Yeah, Purple Haze all in my eyes, don’t know if it’s day or night.
You’ve got me blowing, blowing my mind. Is it tomorrow or just the end of time?
Thank you Jimi Henrix for Purple Haze — THE jacaranda season soundtrack!

A beautiful time in Oaxaca!
Yes it is! I was surprised by how many jacarandas I saw in Mexico City — including the above photo of the color coordinated guys sitting under one near Bellas Artes.
I love it!
Me, too! So colorful, just like you. 😉
I love these trees and how they carpet the ground in purple!
Yesterday, on the drive to San Antonino Castillo Velasco, there were lovely patches of purple blanketing the dirt along the roadside. A lovely sight!
Beautiful scene
Just catching up on my blogs. Wow, have you ever nailed the Jacaranda in your photos. Love the rift of Hendrix playing through it all. Still enjoying these blooms in Tehuacán, but I’ve noticed from past visits to Oaxaca that the Jacaranda are even better where you are. Thanks for sharing the purple!
[…] Now, throughout Mexico, underneath the purple rain we walk. And, this time of year, I always smile, remember, and begin humming Prince’s Purple Rain and Jimi’s Purple Haze. […]
