Claire Kupers, 2, is all smiles as she swings high above a blooming Gingko tree in the yard of Clyde Everett and the late Frank E. Everett on Glenwood Circle Wednesday. Kupers spent the afternoon enjoying the sunshine with her mother, Anna, brothers Luke and Seth Kupers and friends. Clyde Everett said the 50-year-old tree blooms late every year.
