Dinner Time

Driving through Carson Park we found these Canadian goslings enjoying their evening meal.  Right behind them were Mom and Dad supervising and making sure I would not get to close their their family.

Blu-tiful

"Hello!  I am from the Million Bells Family.  If you think I  am colorful you should see my 999,999 siblings.  Our Creator has done a spectacular job."

Ordinary Beauty

There is nothing more ordinary than petunias among the family of spring flowers.  Yet when we look closely they are marvelous works of art.    The Creator must be pleased.

Mini Bell

Here is one bell from the "Million Bells" flowers.  Our plants do not get the million bells, but we enjoy each one that  shows up.

The yellow spots must be the pollen that makes this time of the year uncomfortable.

High Places

 I appreciate cities that keep these older buildings in good condition and the people who have to maintain their beauty and elegance.   I am glad I am not the one who has to paint these structures and risk their lives to do it.

City Hall - Merrill

Stately and proud this tower catches you eye just driving through town.  

The Race Begins

Looks like I had a great seat to see the Kentucky Derby.  Only kidding.   This photo was taken from the TV as I was home testing out a new lens.

Signs of Spring

Trillium on the floor of the forest means spring has arrived.  Oh how we welcome such a sight because we know there is lots of color to follow.  

Reaching for the Sky

Steeples and towers always grab my attention.  They are designed to be seen and call attention to something important.  This one comes from Door County Wisconsin
