IT'S BLOSSOM TIME IN THE ORCHARDS ALREADY.

Aileen and I went to Osoyoos yesterday to attend the Art Walk which is the first Friday of the month.  I spent some time at the gallery I have photos in then we went to six other art venues.  Of course I took my cameras along so I could get a few photos of the orchards.  This morning we did our usual walk and gathered a few more photos.
