Hello Tom's blogging friends,
I'm not necessarily doing this under duress, but since I have no clue what I'm doing, I guess I'm saying Tom kind of bullied me into it! I'm a photographer and have been having a field day taking pictures of the flowers that are popping up all over my yard. In previous years I have done art shows and sold my flower pictures there. Since I've taken this year off from art shows, these are done purely for the love of it. I have 2 different cameras I use and 2 different lenses and since we planted about 300 bulbs last fall, I'm probably going to wear my cameras out before I'm done! Tom also planted a Gala apple tree and a Golden Delicious Apple tree today and I hope that they produce more fruit than the 2 pear trees! lol So here are a few Spring flower pictures and a couple of apple tree pictures.
Tom says to sign off anyway I want...something hokey like "Springtime in North Carolina". I'll just say goodbye.
