Okay, so Spring was officially here on the 20th, but this is the first really Springy photo! ^_^
Trees everywhere are bursting into springtime beauty! They've had to use the wind machines at night during this cold snap (low of 16 deg.) so that the orchards don't freeze. It's a beautiful time of year, but whoever said the country was quiet didn't have to sleep with the sound of a herd of helicopters out their windows!
On the right is a bud on the earliest blooming tree in the valley. I think its called a tulip tree? On the left is something I've never seen before...is it a yak?
