We have spring fever – bad! And these lovely tulip photos ought to pass the infection on to you too! Don't these flowers make your heart melt?
We took a long drive this past weekend and marveled at all the seasonal changes that are taking place. And we pay close attention to the unfolding landscape when we go on our routine walks around the subdivision. The hillsides around us are looking glorious!
I am still cranking away the work and anxiously waiting to wrap it up the end of next week. As a joke, I am referring to this employment closure as retirement #4! Two of the three consulting jobs I’ve held since my official retirement in late 2007 have consumed most of the past two years. It has been a struggle to try to improve my photography skills and continue the blog during that time. A little breathing room is going to be a welcomed change. Whew!
On a semi-regular basis, I am going to start participating in a Wordless Wednesday posting and link up with Kent Weakley's blog. And the first one is tomorrow! I hope you will like it.
well, happy pending 4th retirement! :) i do hope it will give you more time to enjoy the spring/summer!
ReplyDeleteI didn't realize it was your 4th retirement. I think you should be happy that you still have what it takes to do your job. I'm so wilted, I don't think I could go for a full timer anymore. LOVE your tulip, my aren't quite open yet, but spring is fabulous.
ReplyDeleteIf it is wordless, it must mean a picture...
ReplyDeleteYay for Retirement #4! Of course, with that many retirements under your belt, there may be a #5??
The tulip is gorgeous. Just look at those striations.
I hope your retirement brings you more free time. We have gotten involved with so many projects that we are going to need to retire again soon! lol Love your beautiful tulip...so much detail in this bloom!
ReplyDeleteI love that first one. I made some flower pictures today too. The weather has been so nice. I just hope we won't have an evil summer or another April tornado outbreak.
ReplyDeleteWOW! These pictures are fabulous! If this is what you can do with little time to do it I can't wait to see what you do when you have more time now. Have a great week!!
ReplyDeleteThe tulips are gorgeous. What a wonderful time of the year this is :)
ReplyDeleteI think of candy a lot obviously, because that petal looks just like spun candy to me. Makes me want to lick it. That can't be normal.
ReplyDeleteSorry to be late!! It's been a week...
ReplyDeleteThis is Gorgeous Donna!!! Your photos are magazine quality!

Girl you're like Frank Sinatra. He just couldn't stay away. Love the tulips. They're mysterious!
