Pear Trees in Bloom

Several days ago I was on my way to Tennessee when I passed by an old orchard full of pear trees in full bloom. That was on Friday and I knew I would not have a chance to photograph them in their full glory because I would not be back that way for several days. This is not far from where we live... only about 4 miles away. Of course I forgot about them until yesterday and decided to drive by and see if the trees were still in bloom. Many blossoms have already turned to green leaves but some remained in bloom and I took the photos here using my cell phone camera since I didn't have my camera with me. The fields looked so pretty when all the trees were in full bloom but these photos will give you some idea of what it looked like. It appears to be an old orchard.
