A tale of two apples.
We have a self-set apple tree growing just on the edge of our bounday. Every year the neighbourhood kids pick the apples long before they are ripe. We have always assumed the apples were green never having seen a ripe one. This year however the kids missed two apples right at the top of the tree and for the first time we have two fully ripe apples and they are red!

Soon we will have seeds for more apple trees!
I love growing plants from seed!

Today, he shares his thoughts on #GDPR, #VPN, #Telegram, #AgeVerification, and #Apple.

He also replied to @brennan's question.

He suggested two books that I'll try to get.

Some of the fruit trees yesterday. Apples, apricots, and a plum. Next post is a peach, the other plum, and the pears.

97 blossom degrees, almost a 20 degree increase each of the last 3 days. Low of 63F/17C this morning.
