Smokey and Spring ~ 4/18/15

We finally hit the 70s and no Michigander would have been caught dead inside today. A little yard work was in order and then relaxing with Smokey who is all about relaxing.

It finally got a little warm for this fat cat and she had to find shade.

She later joined me for a little reading and appreciated the newly cleaned out birdbaths.

It's staying light so wonderfully long now and I like to take a pass through the yard and the edge of the woods to take photos in the setting light. Hyacinths and forsythia are joining the daffodil party, and what could be better than flowers, happy cats, and happy people in this long-awaited happy spring. Cheers!

Finally Signs of Spring ~ April 6 - 11, 2015

It's been a long time coming. Winter wasn't as bad as last year but this spring has been cold. Finally we got a little break and the crocus responded.

Smokey, as per usual, likes to walk into the picture :-)

And fat cat Ali was enjoying a little sun.

But the crocus ruled the day.

A few days later, a constant rain & slowly increasing temperatures caused a deep fog.

It also afforded some nice photo opportunities.

And today we hit 60 degrees on a very sunny day. The birds can now be heard singing constantly and this titmouse stopped by for a quick bath.

More flowers are joining or priming to become part of the panoply of spring.

And we're all happy about that, even if you're on the outside looking in.

Random Photos from 4th of July - 7/4/13

Hope you and yours in the US had a wonderful holiday weekend, and for my UK friends, we know the Queen is weeping (as per Amro :-)

"Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II will spend most of today weeping into her silken handkerchief. Think on that while you "celebrate" - you've upset an old lady."
