Signs Of Spring

 

“Spring begins in small ways: a bud, a breeze, a brighter kind of light.”

Sunshine On Stems

 The forsythia are one of the first bushes to bloom in the summer. And this year's are beautiful. These are all quite close to us.

A last look back

A big ball of sunshine sat on the side of the road

Forsythia bloomed with happiness, it showed

Spring will be here to stay one day soon

As the flowers will dance to the bird's tune

A Bit Of Armor

 We saw this car awhile ago. Look at the huge spikes on the tires! I wonder what kind of a person drives it. It would be funny if it turned out to be a little old lady.

 “That’s not a vehicle — that’s a rolling warning label.”

“Spikes on the hubcaps? Bold choice. Terrifying, but bold.”

The Net

 Last week, we watched our granddaughter Dara's tennis match between two high schools.

She takes after Phil and her dad, and is a good tennis player. I thought I got some good action shots through the fence.

The official photographer (I am assuming) sat for the longest time taking shots through the fence holes. 

Dara's mom & dad sat on the other side of the fence.

And so it goes on a chilly weekday tennis tournament.

“The net doesn’t divide — it invites.”

Sunday Sunset

 This was this evening's sunset. I just snapped it a few hours ago.

You can see the Blue Ridge Mountains in the background

As we drive away, you can see it reflected in the windows and side of the car.

“Spring sunsets melt the chill right out of the day.”

Blue Sparks In the Grass

 Yes, I know I have recently posted the Persian Speedwell in our yard. But I just could not help myself, I had to post it again. They are still blooming in the yard, and spreading all over. The flower is tinier than your little fingernail!

“Speedwell is spring’s confetti, tossed early and gently.”

On My Knees

 I will not be blogging here on Friday because I am going to get the nerves killed in my knee. Called Radio Frequency Ablation. I leave you with a laugh!
