Some night pictures of the property

Looking West from in front of our Apartment
Both of these were taken at about 10:30pm

Last night Laurie wanted me to go and attempt to take some pictures of the Flowering Plum (Thunder Clouds) that we have scattered around the property. These pictures were taken of the ones on the corner just outside our patio. It is really pretty the way the lights reflect off the pink blooms. It sort of gives the trees a life all their own. The trees will be sprayed on Monday to prevent the fruit from setting. We have to do that for safety reasons. Otherwise the fruit drops onto the ground and some of our tenants could trip or slip on it and get injured. Once the trees are sprayed they loose the pretty pink in a matter of a few days. It looks like pink snow with all the petals falling with the slightest breeze. By the end of the week most of the pink petals will be replaced with a small red-purple leaf that will remain for the rest of the summer.
