I’m going to revisit a trip we made up to the gardens near the mountains.  I am actually hoping to go there this week or next as well.  I seriously can’t wait.  Most of the schoolwork is done and after today (hopefully) my two littlest ones will be completely finished!   Ahhh, now that is the sound of spring.

After the snow this week, next week is supposed to be warmer.  We are all hoping to go to the local gardens this week to celebrate the end of school.  I may be around more, or I may be running around outdoors.  Not sure yet how that will turn out – perhaps a mix of the two 🙂  Either way, I do hope you enjoy the images…

Because I Don’t Have a Photographic Memory (Part #32)

Thank you for sharing more awesome nature photography!

Sharing more photos from the past…  These are of a wonderful walking park near us.  They have both dirt paths to walk and paved paths for joggers, walkers, and bikers alike.  They also have two ponds to walk around and enjoy the view.  I hope they brighten your day, as they have mine…

And no, they are not my usual style.  These photos were taken when my sole form of photography was through my mobile phone.  I am glad that we finally invested in a real camera, but I still find beauty in these images.  They make me smile – snippets of memories of warmer, more carefree days.

The weather is warming up, we have even had a taste of rain.  I think the decision is final… we will have no more snow.  We only have a few more weeks of school left, and that is a blessing.  I am counting the days…  Once I get out, the first thing we will do is go to the gardens.  I have been dying to get back there and see all the beauty.

Today I share with you more photos from the gardens.  These were taken some time last year.  They still enchant me, after all this time.  I hope they lend you a smile.
