A Flower Cloud

Cloud sat posed next to the bouquet of flowers, with a look on her face like she demanded her photo be taken. It’s good to stop and admire the flowers sometimes!

Flowers

Every year I like spring more and more. It’s hard to stay sad when pretty little flowers are poking up through the ground, and the world explodes with color.

The End Of Winter

This was a day at the very end of winter a couple of years ago. These pictures have been sitting in my drafts for a while now, and it seemed time to post them.  This is from another time.  A bit of a sadder time, but that’s ok. The day was warm, after many months […]

Film Around the Home

One early spring evening, some time ago,  I loaded up my little vintage Argus film camera and snapped some photos around the house and yard, and dinner cooked away on the stove. It had just rained and the weather was starting to warm up. Later that day we went on a walk.  Spring was finally […]

A Garden Theme

A bit of a theme has appeared in the garden this year.. My wildflower garden was suddenly a sea of yellow and purple.  A bit of an unusual color combination, but I didn’t mind it! The Allium bulbs that were planted last fall had sprouted up as fluffy purple spheres.  And the lone foxglove from […]

A March Winter

It was a winter that was much colder than recent yeas had been.  The flowers that begun to spring up in January of last year were nowhere in sight until March. The cold continued, and it snowed more times in March than it had for the entire winter. On the second day of spring, as […]

Despite the Cold

Despite the cold that just wont seem to leave, flowers have begun to appear from the ground, and fill the yard with color. Spring is one of the most exciting seasons, every day a little more green, and a little more color appears, after a long dark winter.

Green is on the Way

Through the drab brown leaves and dirt, green is beginning to appear. The sun is shining for a little bit longer each day, and the air is feeling warmer and warmer. Green is on the way!

Neighborhood.

With the the days being longer, I like to make the most of them by taking walks as often as possible.  Even if it is just a quick wander through the neighborhood. In the spring and summer I feel like my favorite time of day, dusk, lasts so much longer. In the winter it seems […]
