Daisys and Roses

The wild daisys are starting bloom.  Actually I'm not sure if these are daisys but they make me think of daisys and they bloom every year just about this time. 


And the wild Roses are blooming too.


There are scenes all over Paris Landing like this.  The wild roses are very persistant and tough.  I hate to think how many times these have been sprayed and cut down.   And wild roses are the most fragrant of all roses.


Can you smell them?

Earth Day


The Well House at Paris Winery

I had a hard time picking just the right photo for Earth Day.  This one is several years old but I've always loved the clouds in contrast to the green of earth.  It seems that every time I go to the Paris Winery ... the clouds are like this.

The Lake
.. there's this one also.  There's just something about blue skies, white fluffy clouds and Earth Day.

Happy Earth Day!

Happy Easter!

In honor of the Easter Bunny  .... some of my favorite bunnies.

Anne's Rabbit
... just loves purple Homestead Verbena

Flopsy and Mopsy live in my backyard. 
Spring, when the Phlox blooms is their favorite time of year.

I found this little bunny hiding out at Homestead Gardens last year.
Apparently he really loves Petunias.

This is my very favorite.  Our granddaughter, Addie with Flopsy and Mopsy.

All of these images were snapshots taken with an inexpensive little point and
shoot camera and then enhanced a little bit by me in Photoshop.

Hope you have a Happy Easter!!

Nice Catch!

I've posted so many photos of pretty posies lately ... I just wanted to remind folks that one of the main reasons folks move here is because of the fishing.  Fishing is one of the main things that makes Paris Landing so wonderful.
