Happy May Day...


It's May!!! and I have three new kittens living under my car...hhmmm...now how do I move the car???

Morels are out...


Early spring in Michigan when we get wet warm nights, the morels will pop up...










And then the ferns begin to unfurl...

Spring at the Lake...


During the winter at the lake, things are always breaking loose from their moorings...You can always find a raft or boat floating somewhere it's not suppose to be...

At work, I stopped out behind the building and leaned again the warm brick...today is one of those days when the air is cold, but the sun is so warm that you can sunbath if you can find a location out of the wind...

At the Beach...



Hubs, the dogs and I went to the beach
...windy and cold...no one there but us...
really nice...except Hubs had a hard time
toughing it out...even the sea birds were
just sitting on the beach with their beaks into the wind...

Friends of Flowers...


On this daffodil sat this little guy...at least I assume it's a 'guy' ...might be a 'gal' ... but I believe they are good friends...

Spring leaves...


The new maple leaves are coming out...they still are a bit crinkly, but that won't last long...

Wild Turkeys...


Walked to the chickens yesterday... as I turned the corner ahead of me was this...he was so proud of himself...he kept strutting...

Morning Sunshine...


Love to watch the sunshine through the trees early in the morning...

Horsey Things...


Each year near here, Richland Horse park holds a three day event...dressage, stadium jumping, and cross country...it's a horse persons place to be...though it really makes a person want to be in the saddle...there is a 'keyhole' jump for the more advanced riders...timing is everything...
