4.28.09 - Crab Apple Flowers

"What is it?" I asked, already knowing what he was talking about and amused at all the superlative qualities that he was giving to it.
"It's purple," he said, "you have to see it!"
"Oh, isn't it a tree with pink flowers?"
"Yeah, but the flowers are purple, not pink!"
And they were purplish on Sunday, but the sun made the color fade by today:

4.25.09 - Baby Canadian Geese

Taken by my husband while on a canoe in one of the lakes of the French Creek State Park. (I was too afraid to take a camera when I went on the canoe with K and my eldest son [seven years old], who was rowing with my husband, both completely clueless, obviously).
