Our dreary Schenectady cherry blossom crop in 2023 was virtually nonexistent, after only a minimalist showing in 2022.  So, I was worried as the season approached about the quality of this year’s (2024) cherry blossom arrays in the Stockade and elsewhere in Schenectady.  But, I learned that I had nothing to fear, seeing the rapid blooming on April 11 and 12, of large and far more colorful blooms. And, the blooming continued for days, as we reported with glee omn Aprio 16th.
