On Monday I talked about taking an adventure.
That evening my "live-in gardener" and I took a drive to Sauvie Island
for a view of the apple blossoms.
We figured no one would be around and they weren't.
It was just before sunset.
We took some tea and cranberry bread and had a little picnic under the blossoms.
Even with the varieties of apples there is a variety of blossoms.
This is an old orchard with heirloom apples.
The trees are not marked, but I am guessing this is a crab apple.
It doesn't have the pink tint to the blossom of a regular apple.
Now here is the pink tint on another tree full of blossoms.
This is what sings to my heart.
These old trees full of lichens and moss with crooked branches
just make me smile.
I wonder if they know they are much loved?
The sun was low in the sky and we couldn't stay long,
but it did my heart good to see them.
One last glimpse of that gorgeous blush on the blossoms yet to open
and we were on our way.
What is singing to your heart this week?
Are you noticing what you notice in the small things?
Happy weekend, dear friends!
Does one day melt into another?
Yep! It is Friday all day today!
Enjoy!
