It is a lovely photo, and, sigh, it also says "PEACHES!".....something I love and just can't seem to grow. sniff.
Confidence is that feeling you have right before you do something really stupid.

Dave, is that a Reliance peach, by chance? The blossoms look like one I used to have.
Been looking for another one, because it makes such wonderful jam.

The three varieties I have are Belle of Georgia, Sam Houston and Rio Grande. I'm not exactly sure which of those three are pictured here.

Now, I'm wanting to eat fresh peaches. This time of year, I can hardly wait
for fresh fruits and veggies.

But it was so perfect because we really do complicate you. And you're always so patient with us.

Some of the blossoms we see often and take for granted make beautiful banners just
like this one. It's almost like taking a piece of a work of art, and making it the focal
point, or the sweet spot as it is sometimes referenced.
