IT's SPRING!

It must be Spring, just look at this beautiful Peach Blossom. Yep, the weather is just gorgeous. As a matter of fact, this is the first blossom on the tree. Last year we had a late frost and it killed all the baby fruit. I sure hope that that doesn't happen this year. Our silver Leaf Maples are in full bloom and droping plenty of pollen sacks all over the ground. http://http://www.freetrees.com/trees/treeGuide/TreeDetail.cfm?ID=26
I chose to make Friday my mental health day by not going to work. Must be Spring feaver. It is nice to be able to do this when needed and boy do I need it. ;>) Yep, sure do like the Spring weather, it sorta revives a person from so long a Winter recluse.

My favorite week of the year, Spring.
Mrs. Beans has been busy pruning the pear tree way back, we should have done it long ago since we didn't get pears last year anyway on it. Hopefully by next year we'll be back in its good graces...that tree sure makes good pears.

Ohh so that's what those little flowering bushes are.. Our neighbor has one and it has no leaves what so ever on it but was full of those flowers.

I hope you get lots of big juicy peaches this year.
