David, that looks like a gorgeous place, and your Appaloosa looks cool, too! Bob, you have cherry tree in your yard? It must be sweet to enjoy cherry blossoms whenever you like. Blue sky and cherry blossoms make really nice contrast. Jim, I can't see your picture on my screen. Maybe a wrong lin

Thank you all for the beautiful pictures. I visited our Japanese house in Philadelphia expecting to see a backdrop of pink and white. Alas, not the case but I'm glad I can view vicariously thru you and your pictures. What wonder! On Sunday, April 12, 2020 at 11:06:32 AM UTC-4, Takashi wrote:

Dave, that looks like a lovely day and lovely flowers. No wonder there were many people outside. Carl, that's a nice b&w photo! When you ride around in rural areas in Japan, you are likely to come upon a huge tree. Takashi On Monday, April 13, 2020 at 2:18:28 AM UTC+9, tuolumne bikes wrote: >
