On one of the barns in the village was written "Built 1745", so, who knows; the tree could have been planted more or less around that time.Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704656564078750607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1949425054295660529.post-52971135211833038192015-04-26T16:00:33.675+02:002015-04-26T16:00:33.675+02:00Thank you, Graham, that is good to know!Thank you, Graham, that is good to know!Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704656564078750607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1949425054295660529.post-60821337157079152902015-04-26T14:23:43.753+02:002015-04-26T14:23:43.753+02:00Hey Meike!

And I know what you mean about forget-me-nots, they are small flowers and in bright sunlight, hard to photograph. (You know I love them!)<br />Love that big pear tree. It's so big, I wonder how old it could be.<br />I love the posts about the allotment! I think I am ready for another party there! :-)Kay G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07228498846814735537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1949425054295660529.post-84248166745348749432015-04-26T11:53:04.819+02:002015-04-26T11:53:04.819+02:00I may be a lot of things Meike but I'm not a q...I may be a lot of things Meike but I'm not a quitter!

For instance, I could sit on the edge of the pavement in our street and watch ants for what to me felt like hours (it probably weren't hours; as a child, one's concept of time is different from what we arrive at when we grow up and start working).Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704656564078750607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1949425054295660529.post-59168151528072494092015-04-26T09:31:52.453+02:002015-04-26T09:31:52.453+02:00By that stage, I think we had been walking for abo...By that stage, I think we had been walking for about an hour. The overall walk took about 3 hours, but we had come a bit less than half way when we arrived at the pear tree.Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704656564078750607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1949425054295660529.post-45758384268375213742015-04-26T09:07:15.155+02:002015-04-26T09:07:15.155+02:00Some lovely photos!

I can't wait for our apple trees to be in blossom.<br />I have found that the blue of Forget-me-nots shows up better when they are photographed in shade rather than sunlight - it might help.Scriptor Senexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17795521284516432520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1949425054295660529.post-7691306596073628432015-04-26T02:35:08.408+02:002015-04-26T02:35:08.408+02:00Another lovely walk through the beautiful German c...Another lovely walk through the beautiful German countryside......I look forward to seeing the village!Thickethouse.wordpresshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17187303460677067276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1949425054295660529.post-11066740829254089702015-04-26T00:00:45.757+02:002015-04-26T00:00:45.757+02:00It all looks very green.
