Showered. Washed hair. Feel human again.



Nice view of the Capitol dome from my room. The faint hashmarks are thanks to the window screen. You can only open these windows so far.



And a photo of the prairiefire crabapple. The blooms will either be faded or gone by the time I get home.



Stopped by the bar. Said hi to some folks. Will work now.

The photo doesn't do it justice--a little bit of sun washout going on there. The blooms are a bright, rich magenta, and thanks to the anti-rust treatments, the tree is absolutely covered with them.

When we moved here, the back yard of the clinic had a gorgeous old crabapple that was covered with bloom every year--almost that bright. But then the next people there cut it down, as people did the old Mexican plum across the street (a fountain of wonderful-smelling white in spring.)

I've never planted a crab, because they aren't truly native right here, but your picture is making me rethink that. A crabapple in the garden, on the opposite corner to the Mexican plum I put in, could be gorgeous. Dunno if their bloom is synchronized in time, though.
