Spring

Our weeping cherry

(a gift from my Mom)

is in full bloom.

I wanted to include the lovely poem

'Spring'

by Mary Oliver

but was having great difficulty

getting the verse to line up properly.

So, 

if you care,

you may read it here.

The boys and I spent a blissful morning

wandering about the yard and garden:

I taking photographs,

they chasing eachother

and frolicking over a golf ball -

such a treasure!

The azaleas are popping!

The redbuds are in full bloom.

The Daphne is dressed in its 2012 foliage

with only a few blooms remaining.

My Hellebores are also 

on the wane.

This was a gift from my dear friend

Lou Fockele -

many years ago.

A treasured remembrance

of a great man!

Some tulips bloom year after year

here in Georgia -

but not many!

Talk about will power and stamina!

Happy Spring!

Last night we watched a great film 

on Netflix on demand:

"Ingredients".

The photography is spectacular,

and the message is vital!
