What spring should be

Maier orchard in spring 2006
So everyone has lots of nice pictures and I wanted to try too. I have this picture from early last May, which has been on my laptop background since then. It is an apple tree blossoming in front of the sunset. It was beautiful. Much nicer than the snow rain mix that resembles our Christmas weather. Spring will be here soon, hopefully.

Nice, Reuben. It makes me miss the orchard. Its hard to get fresh fruit out here. You should throw a few fruit trees in your backyard so I can get some of that goodness when we come to visit.

Hey there Sportels! That shot sure brings back some memories for me. Are those trees still there? Of course there's a lot blooming out here right now too. Check my blog for photos www.stevemaier.blogspot.com

Nice picture Reuben!

The trees are still there, albeit covered with 5 inches of snow that we had today. I was ready to make a snowman this evening but I thought the neighbors might think something was amiss with a 51 year old man building a snowman all by his lonesome. Dad

I think the neighbors would be more concerned if you were building a snow fort and stockpiling snowballs by yourself. That would really say crazy.

Well, crazy might be worth going for. like self expression and art. Express yourself dad.
