Awesome! The apples are very woody and kind of sour that come from them; I also have some dwarf trees I'm planting as an orchard and they are in bloom too. We have a lot of douglas firs and other conifers surrounding our place, and the forest smell in spring is really strong. So the scent is just like heaven outside right now.

A beautiful canopy, Gayla. This one I'm going to imprint in my visual eye. Lots of times during the day when I need "therapy." On the way to work this morning, I photographed a lilac tree. For a couple of shots, the light seemed just right -- will see when I download them later. But even if I didn't capture exactly what I hoped for (that elusive perfect shot) it was lovely to stop, sniff & shoot. Stress relief, indeed. A beautiful canopy, Gayla.
