Spring Festival 2022

Wrapping up Spring Festival week 12, with this beauty. I like the color combination. This spring has been different. With more rain and less watering at this time, and continued color popping up. It’s been wonderful!

Spring Festival 2022~week 4

The appearance of this vineyard has most likely changed since we drove by. It’s not a location that we drive to, very often. Although there are plenty of vineyards in the Willamette Valley. Joining Dawn Miller and others for Spring Festival week 4.

Spring Festival 2022: week 2

I am happy to join along on this Spring Festival 2022 challenge. Thank you Dawn Miller! Most of the photos I took today, were taken while on a morning drive out of town. It had been about a year since we were last in this location. This barn has a newer coat of paint. I am including the following image only because I had never see a Magnolia tree with yellow blossoms.

Festival of Leaves 2020: week 12

Until next time..

Moving on now and wrapping it up at Festival of Leaves. Thank you Dawn Miller for hosting, and helping us to focus on the beauty around us. I have found that during these challenging days, it is easy to become self absorbed. But observing wild life, and the change of season’s, have contributed to keeping my perspective in a healthier place.. Stay well, all of you leaf hunter’s..

Festival of Leaves 2020~week 10

I hope that this Thanksgiving Day has been a peaceful one for you.. Yesterday we ventured out with a particular place in mind to take pictures. It was closed to the public, so we went with plan b. It satisfied my appetite for photo ops. Festival of Leaves is special and if I were a poet, I’d write about why. Maybe some day.. What I can say, is don’t let life pass you by, rehashing the past. Sometimes old stuff will bog us down. Let go and invite new into your life..

Festival of Leaves 2020~week 7
