In Between Rain Storms

I took a foto of these lovely blossoms on my neighbor's tree.

Sunday Afternoon

Took my camera phone with me when I went to walk the dogs after church today.  We were late getting home due to the ward conference and the potluck luncheon following.  Ned was there mostly sitting and smiling at everyone.  Bruce introduced himself and his wife and the blond next to her introduced herself as his second wife.  The she said, "Sorry.  I'm actually Sister Hall."  :-)

Anyway, here's the fotos:

In Color

Just a week after all the berries dropped ...

it is covered in blossoms.

these were the "berries"

and there are lots of these daffy flowers.

Tomorrow it is back to paperwork.

Paperwork

Paperwork is not high on my list of fun things to do ... So, I procrastinate doing it.  I go up to the shop and watch TV ... work on bicycles ... read a book ... take a ride ... take a walk ... but always in the background it is nagging at me.  I spent 4 hours yesterday doing paperwork (Progess Notes).  And I've got at least another 4 hours worth to do today (Treatment Plan Updates).  UGH!  Of course, I don't get paid for paperwork.  And it's tedious ... requiring thought.  It's raining outside, so I'm not doing it this morning ... how's that for logic.  Besides, I have to go see some clients about 35 miles away from here (this morning) ... I think I'll take a bicycle ride this afternoon before I get back to the paperwork ... ya think?  Later

Have a Great Day!

Another Snow Storm?!

For all of you suffering through another snow storm

I'll just show you a photo that I took on the way to work this morning.

It's one of those tulip trees (Japanese Magnolia)

Enjoy another lovely day!

:-)

Layers of Misty Morn

I went out to walk the dogs this morning and found that the mist wasn't clear down to ground level ... at least not at our house.  But it was at ground level at the top of the hill.  So there were layers of misty and clear.  It made for some fun early morning views.  I just had to take some fotos.  The last two fotos I stood in the same spot ... the first one I focused on the brightest part of the sky in order to darken the foto ... the second one I focused a little lower down in a slight darker area, but not so dark of an area that it would turn the foto totally bright and clear as day.

  

See the mist in the trees and the moisture on the old barn.

These two are different photos ... 

just depends upon which area you set the auto-focus. 

Gotta go on a 10 mile bicycle ride with a grandson to help him with his Cycling Merit Badge for Boy Scouts.  And do another one next week.  I asked Murray if he wanted to ride along ... and his response was "Bite me!"  I guess that not everyone enjoys a nice little bicycle ride.  :)
