HELLO AND HAPPY SUMMER

I think I've ignored my blog long enough - time to put  up something else up.

We had a good spring up here in the mountains with a lot of walking and photographing beautiful blooms and lakes.  There has been a few times we've seen grandkids and there will be some more times in the near future as a few of them are in town from Bend, Oregon.  We haven't taken any trips but the second half of the year will be busy - first a trip to Washington in July and then a trip to Jamaica in November for my fourth and last son's wedding.

We've taken a lot of day trips off the mountain to see some of my favorite towns that bloom so pretty in the spring and I have collected so many photos but haven't really blogged anything.

I think I have needed a break from blogging and I intend (doesn't mean I will) to blog more soon.  It's like  i hit a wall ... - I think I'll go through photos to choose what to blog and then there are so many that I get confused on what to post and give up and go do something else.

So here is a few photos I landed on this morning and figured I would post them.  The colors appealed to me a lot and now it makes me want to go out for a walk through a pretty neighborhood.

Hope your summer is unfolding nicely.

Sounds like a happy summer for you. I know exactly what you mean about blogging. I keep meaning to post get started then get interrupted and don't go back to finish.

Look forward to seeing some photos of your son's wedding in Jamaica.

Hi Winifred - I'll definitely post photos when that happens. Thanks for visiting. I should stop over and see where you have been traveling lately.

thanks so much everyone - for looking at my blog where I hardly ever show up anymore. I do have good intentions but then i lose them.
