Did you know...

Washington state is the top U.S. producer of apples, pears, and sweet cherries?
Especially the crops in and around our volcanoes, the Rainier and St. Helens
regions with that special volcanic soil. Washington produces more than 90% of
the nation's organic apple crop.

Seems every few homes have their trees blossoming just now. Makes for a wonderful
drive to the shore

And it's days like these that I miss having to pick up my daughter on campus.
I'd arrive early just to wait under the canopy of their famous Japanese imported
cherry trees.

Sincerely sorry for those poor people.
They don't know they're living one of their best time at this moment

Hey, I know that roundabout! That's Al Capone Lane

Seriously though, looks like a nice neighborhood. Late spring, or even Summer
and Fall pics would be nice too

Stunning in person. They're everywhere in this area just now, a popular tree
for many up here. Short lived though, they'll have dropped their blossom
in a couple of weeks. After first shifting from brilliant pink to white.
