Black Mountain
The greening of the mountains from Tanbark Ridge overlook, elevation 3175 feet, Blue Ridge Parkway, North Carolina. The road seen in upper left is the parkway as it continues northeast. Can you see the little houses, including my favorite, the red roofed one?

Spring in the 'hood
In just 2 hot days the Bradford Pear tree just decided to shake it up and bloom-forth!
We have some older homes, and some newer ones. It's a comfortable dead end street. No kids. I'm glad of that, because I've already raised mine, and want a quiet neighborhood. That may change with the turnovers that are about to happen. I'll see how it is.

The tree looks beautiful in all its blossom.
ReplyDeleteDoes the Pear just flower, or does it produce fruit as well?
ReplyDeleteThey are just ornamentals...and all over the civilized part of Western NC.
