I was coming out from town yesterday and Ed Brown’s tulip tree was in full bloom, so I whipped into his driveway and took a few pictures.
Brown Family, if you saw a red jeep in the driveway, it was me. I was going to shoot a note to Ed’s daughter, my friend Marge Long, and get permission, but figured if I waited one more day, I might miss my window on the photo.

Tim and I stopped by to see Ed shortly before he passed away earlier this year. We sure do miss you, Ed.

So lovely!

That is the most beautiful tree!
Thank you for sharing..beautiful tree, beautiful memories of Grandpa Brown.
So glad you did that.
Thank you, Jane, for taking the time to share this. That tree is awesome but it doesn’t last long, so it’s good you stopped when you did. 🙂
So beautiful!
