Apple Blossom Time!



It's apple blossom time! Such a lovely display every spring! The Annapolis Valley here in Nova Scotia even has a whole festival around it! These are pics I took of some old apple trees in the back woods...at one time, maybe as long ago as 100 years ago or more, the area that our house stands on was farmland (I think they didn't realize that this particular area has almost nothing but bedrock, which must have been gravely disappointing), and these few apple trees and some painstakingly hand-built rock walls are all that remains of that time.


Casey ran around and tried to wait as patiently as she could for Mommy to finish taking pictures in the brush. "What IS she doing? Are we gonna play or what??!!!" It's such a gorgeously hot sunny day, we had a great time!
