    Messymimi, thanks. Always good to find another Andrews Sisters fan.

    Thanks, Bossy Betty. It's a joy to have in the back yard.

    I love that tree! It reminds me of the one my husband planted in a home long gone that was named after my maiden name.

    I wish I could bottle the smells of all the blooming stuff in my backyard to bring out in January or February to remind me what spring and early summer are like!

    Why thank you, Hilary.

    Glad to learn this song was such a hit with everyone. Barbara, my husband boils the apples and mashes them, then freezes the results. He uses it on his morning oats.

    So pretty! It seems funny to have our blossoms now...when out farther west (and south of course!)...they had their blossoms a month or more ago! Hoping this means our next season will just last longer:) HA!
