Of trees and knees and bumble bees
First and foremost, an apology for my lack of posting as of late.
I’ve been feeling like crap. My back is acting up, and my legs and feet are in constant pain. The joys of neuropathy! When it gets bad, I don’t much feel like writing (which saves you from reading a bitch fest!).
But enough about that.
My wife and I saw a tree the other day and are wondering exactly what the hell it is. I think it’s an apple, but it could just as easily be a cherry. It was, however, in full bloom and quite stunning to look at. I took a few pictures, and if the one or two people who read this could help me in figuring out what it is, I’d appreciate it!
If it’s the kind of tree that doesn’t produce fruit, we’d love to get one or two for our yard. Please tell me what it is!
Other news: My motorcycle is now exactly that…. MY motorcycle! My wife made the final payment on it and we’re expecting to receive the title for it soon. Now… if I could only ride the damn thing! I’d post a picture of it, but all I have is an old photo that doesn’t show the new grips or pipes I put on it. I guess I’ll have to wheel it outside, wash and wax it, and get the camera out.
Ok… so I didn’t post anything about knees or bumble bees, so here’s a couple images I found via google:
