Spring Blossoms

An occasionally wise five-year-old exclaimed yesterday, "Oh my gosh! Look at that beautiful tree!"

It is its Week of Gorgeousness. It's a nectarine that was very poorly treated before our arrival, 4 years ago. Last year it yielded maybe a pound total of tiny little guys, the year before a handful. We keep mildly planning to replace it in its spot with an apple tree. But in the meantime, it sure has a glorious spring blossom week.
