A Bounty of Bluebells

We seem to have an overabundance

of Bluebells this year

Growing wild

 in the woods across the way

Sunshine on a Cloudy Day

In a meadow

high on a hill

Away from the things of man ~

Obstacle Course

Elves go under

Fairies fly over

And we mortals

find a way around

Humming With Life

Forming and transforming

The wonder of it all ~

Down on the Farm

A once was farm ~

Sadly so many have gone to seed

Even their cool rides

now sit idle

Meandering

Sunny and 75

2 days in a row . . .

Pinch me !

Warm Breezes Faintly Scented

I feel an afternoon nap

coming on ~

The Touch

Have a beautiful weekend ~

Dream Tree

Dreams are little capsules

of hope

of love 

and of adventure

Never stop dreaming

Stop Look and Listen ~

I love these spur of the moment

grab the camera

leap out of the car

and click click click . . .

And actually manage

to get something recognizable

even kinda cool ~ 

Camellia Commotion

Our camellia bush is overflowing with blooms

its laden branches bending to the ground

It must be this rainy yet mild weather

we've been having ~

Moss Laden

 Along the Toutle River ~

The up-rooted stump was a victim

of the 1980 eruption

of Mt St Helens

A monster debris flow devastated the river

  Now slowly returning to its peaceful beauty

Stormy Weather

Our unsettled weather continues

The sky has been so dramatically beautiful

it's impossible to complain ~

Unfurling Beauty

 

I fell in love

with this little flower

Just the way it is

Dairy Farm of Yesteryear

Sitting vacant and looking sad

 this old dairy farm

has seen better days

But was way fun

to gingerly explore

Purity

There's nothing like

the pureness of white ~

Exteriors and Interiors

A wonderful barn

we wandered on

With some serious character ~

Sharing with Barn Charm

Softly Growing

Deep in the forest

lush with green

a tiny pink wildflower

steals the scene

Have a Beautiful Easter ~

May the sun shine brightly

on your Easter bonnet ~

Clouds through a Gate with a Cow

After a deluge of rain

( well a mini deluge )

the clouds parted

( sort of )

So I took a late afternoon

 walk up the lane

( and hardly almost didn't get wet )

It was grand !

First Bloom

Our Camellia is chock-full of buds

with one lonely bloom

Not to worry , little flower

 An explosion of companions

is coming soon

Mt St Helens ~ At the Crater

Woke up to a lovely surprise . . .

sunshine !

So I decided to take a drive up Spirit Lake Hwy

to visit my favorite mountain

The snow was wildly dancing

to the tune of the howling winds

It was beyond beautiful

I was doing my happy dance ~

True Beauty Comes With Age

No matter who

Open Open Open

It's been downright soggy here

the ducks are loving it

I'd love a wee bit

of sunshine

Floating ~

In a sea of tranquility
