It’s apple and pear blossom time, although with most of the pears in the immediate area gone (chopped, eliminated, split and removed, various sad tales), I was glad to find this ancient and huge apple tree in the corner of the middle school parking lot, managing to hang on—and even thrive. Perhaps it gets a boost from the huge heating-and-AC unit that’s nearby?

OOOH, I’m so envious. The blooms in your area seem early. Here in Arkansas I’m seeing only buds, but at least there are warm southern breezes.
