Signs of Spring

Well, so it's been a mixed bag of happenings lately it seems. I've finally managed (with hubby's help) and the use of a borrowed external cd read/write been able to produce a copy of the pictures that I've been taking over the last several weeks. So, be prepared for a medley of subjects to be on display here for a while! It seems that the cd drive in our laptop has officially gone belly-up.

These beauties here are but a sampling of what's going on in my yard right now. The daffodils are blooming like crazy!

This is a shot of Mt. Hood taken from a country road on our way back from the horse expo in Albany weekend before last.

A familiar snout...seems like this particular snout follows me wherever I go.


Aahh...I tot I saw a puddy tat. This little girl and a whole host of others is available for adoption in case anyone's interested. They are as cute as a button, come in a variety of colors, sizes and sexes. Takers will be handsomely rewarded...



This was a Friday evening sky as I drove home from work. I love those sunrays coming through the clouds. God's art is something to always be appreciated.
Well, that's it for today. Business here at work has begun to pick up and I am way late in starting for home to do the chores and prepare dinner.
In case anyone's wondering, this is day 5 of the 37 Day Challenge and things are going splendidly!! Annie Banannie and I completed our 45 minute walk today at lunch time. We've done the same walk two days in a row, we just reversed our direction today...you know, look at things from a different perspective. We are feeling good!!
Blessings to all from cingspots...

Great photos ! LOL about the cats ,the nieghbors momma moved in here a couple years ago and I now tend to offer free cats/kittens to whomever winds up here ,for any reason! I have to catch a few and get them fixed. Kind of kept thinking they would go home!

I love the simple flowers: daffodils, tulips, daisies. I always want to take sky pictures but I find it very difficult to really capture the sight, especially the sky over the ocean.

Yay!!!! Spring is trying to overcome winter, and all I can say is it is about time!!!!

Glad to see that you are feeling better, and good luck with your challenge! :)

Sheez, please send me some of your motivation, because I have not been able to get my sorry self moving. I'm doing OK with the food part, but just can't seem to get my keister moving.
