DeaconKC Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 The Missus and I took last week to go to Tennessee for a getaway. There were a lot of pear trees blooming there, making it very pretty and we really enjoyed it. On our return home, we had a great surprise, the trees lining our driveway are pears and they had bloomed while we were gone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birdgun Quail, SASS #63663 Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 On my walks around the neighborhood, many wildflowers and garden flowers are blooming. Looking for the blessings of life and hopefully seeing the light at the end of virus crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allie Mo, SASS No. 25217 Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 Beautiful! Our nectarine and apricot are blooming too. They are pale pink and darker pink. I love spring when the flowers and trees are in bloom. Not to mention that the weeds are green. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeaconKC Posted March 22, 2021 Author Share Posted March 22, 2021 It was a nice surprise as we bought the house last year and moved in just last December. We had no idea they were pear trees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeaconKC Posted March 22, 2021 Author Share Posted March 22, 2021 Years ago I was in a LGS in Harrisburg IL on the opening day of dove season. A fellow walked in and asked what the limit was on doves. The owner looked at at him and said 12 in possession. The fellow replies "Dang, better give me about 10 more boxes of shells."

Four-Eyed Buck,SASS #14795 Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 We had one of those pears. It didn't like me, every time I mowed it stuck me with it's thorns. Also was too close to the house, had to take it down. Neighbor has a large red bud in the yard beside us, it's pretty in the spring, but hasn't budded out yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So does the ground...for the second time in a week! Just cleaned about 12" of "partly cloudy" off my SUV! At least this go around the streets are going to be passable.

But then again, if you only get stuck by thorns when mowing...we here in the desert don't mow much. Miss seeing the redbud trees blooming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
