Often, the surest sign of Spring in Flagstaff is that it's sunny with spring-like temperatures, and incredibly windy. It's a time when you really want to get out and bicycle, but the wind is too nasty. When it comes to the fruit trees the result is often that they start to bloom, but never mature enough to result in fruit on the trees - the wind just blows them right off the trees.
It's too soon to tell about fruit, but this Spring the blossoms managed to survive a late-season cold spell and bloomed for long enough to put on a show. It was even pleasant bicycling weather. I'm not sure what some of these are. I'm pretty sure the white ones are apples, but the pink ones I'll have to watch and see what appears later. In the meantime, it was beautiful for about a week.
