The Beauty Around Us

April 12, 2010

Good morning.  Believe it or not, yesterday turned out to be a really gorgeous day.  The sun came out and the temps went up.  Today, so far, is looking a bit gray and damp at the moment, but who knows?   The weatherman is promising showers today with lots of rain tonight and tomorrow.  I'm not complaining though.  I've been watching the horrible fires burning in Texas, that are spreading into Oklahoma, Missouri and New Mexico. 

With all the weather disasters that are occurring all over the world, it makes me wonder when man will sit up and take notice that he needs to work harder at living with Mother Nature and keeping the peace with her.  Man is busy at chewing up all of the land available and showing it no respect, while killing off all the beautiful flora and fauna.  When will man learn?

This morning I have a photo of the pond where I get a lot of my photos.  We have a really beautiful park with several large ponds in it.  There are always people there, just walking or feeding the ducks and geese. 


The next couple of photos are ones that I took early one morning to show the beautiful spring sky.  You don't have to look very far to find beauty on this land of ours.



Before I sign off, let me post a preview of Su's part of "It's Raining, Duckie Darling."   We had a lot of fun putting this kit together, so I hope you are able to use it for your Spring and Easter photos.

Sorry folks, but Blogger is not letting me add any more photos here.  I just tried three times, and it won't budge.    Some days you just can't win!!  Now I think I should get busy here.  I have lots to do, and only a couple of days to get it all done.  Till tomorrow, Y'all have a fantastic day.

Hugs, Edna B.

Yes, just have to use your eyes properly and there is always something beautiful to see around us.
Isn't it fun to follow the growth of seedlings???
It's sometimes hard to get them to full plants that actually bloom too, but every time again it's worth a try and aren;t we proud of ourselves, when some of them actually succeed?? LOL.
Enjoy your free time!
Have a lovely day.
