Apple Tree and its Apples.........


I did not think there would be apples this year.  We had a hard freeze that made me think that no bloom will survive that.


I was so excited to see that I had apples on the tree. I went out  in the heat last evening while the sun was going down and took some photos.  I deleted all but two shots as I am getting too many pictures saved when I only need the best ones.

The apples are few in number and that is a good thing.  The less amount of apples on the tree, the more energy and growth that the tree will get to them.  Last years abundant crop was just too much so this year things should be good.  I have two other apple trees out there and I have not journey over to see how they are doing.   I know the pear tree isn't going to have very many pears this year just by the first glance.

The Capitol.....

 A shot through a large window creates an unusual yet usual effect. The Iowa State Capital has new gold leaf on its dome.
