You Southerners are making me nervous with all your lush pictures. We're getting there. Took a few pictures Tues. 5/6 before it snowed on Wed.

Nanking Bush Cherries

Chokecherries just getting ready to blossom

Native plums just starting to blossom

Honey berries blossomed out

Saskatoon berries just starting to blossom

The garlic is coming along nicely

Apples almost ready to blossom.

Sorry about the poor pictures-it had clouded up by the time I got around to fooling with the camera. Forgot to take a picture of the rhubarb-we've been picking it. With a little break from the weather we should have a decent crop of stuff.

Well...down here in Central Arkansas we had the same thing happen about 2-3 weeks ago. Spring is what it is...where you is. Ya just put up with what it brings.
And nice enuff pics. Bright light makes for good stone pics...but not so sure about nature scenes.
And ya have almost enuff garlic growing to get me through a whole year cookin... LOL
And best pic is one that has the compost pile in it.. there's never enuff compost!

Heh heh-I'll keep enough garlic to replant this fall and enough for ourselves and the rest is already sold.

That's really just a "collection bin" for the compost pile. have three piles: one that's finished, one that's almost finished, one that's working. Be time to start another one going pretty soon.

And a big thumbs up on the chokecherry wine!

rocknrob: That was one heck of a windstorm that thankfully missed me. I guess Seatac almost hit 60mph gusts. I bet those were some fun landings Nov 20, 2024 21:55:16 GMT -5
