    Visiting the valley of the d'anjou

    After Robert posted his wonderful photos, I had to respond with these taken in the Hood River Valley, OR (my home town). The trees in bloom are pears, mostly d'anjou, bartlett and bosc. There are also apples and cherries.

    Those are smudge pots, for heating the air when the frost hits during the blossom season.

    I love Central Oregon. My folks had a place in Bend when I was in college...loved it.

    Of course, Bend is a few hours drive from where you are.
