It seems that spring is here (although it’s supposed to get down into the 30s at night next weekend). Click the thumbnails to get the biggie version. First, Scott’s at Sylvan Acres Farm just outside Bellefonte:

And the pears in front of St. Josef Stalin are in bloom (all over the county, actually):

Rather than deal with the limestone, I decided this year just to put out pots. Dahlias on the front porch:

    Hah! I spent the weekend in State College hanging out with old roommates, and you apparently spent your Saturday taking photographs of my neighborhood. Tallyrand will be much better-looking when they finally get the grass grown back in & get rid of all the chain-link fence protecting the ground over the new sewage line right through the middle of the park.

    St. Josef Stalin? I don’t recognize the location being an out-of-towner.

    I think that’s the new church on campus - oh, I’m sorry, “Spirituality Center”. It looks like a Frank Gehry cancer eating a barn. Nauseating, which is appropriate for its function as a nondenominational placebo which mimics an actual place of worship.
