Smell the Roses

Some of my rose photos...

All taken in my Mom's garden earlier this year.



Ready for Spring!

I am definitely ready for Spring.  Every time I looked out the window yesterday the weather was doing something different.  We had rain, snow, sunshine and hail. 

Here are some of my recent photos that cheer me up.  And get me excited about the Spring flowers to come.

March is almost here...

Snowshoeing at Crater Lake

Went snowshoeing at Crater Lake in January with my husband and another couple.  It was cold, but it was fun.  One of these days we will go when it is sunny.  Maybe this Spring.

It was so cold and windy I didn't want to carry around my Pentax, so I used my husband's point and shoot Panasonic.

Visitor Center at Crater Lake

If you ever get the chance, Crater Lake is a great place to visit. Spring, Summer, Fall or Winter.

Stopped at Beckie's Restaurant on the way home for dinner. Great French Dip. Wanted pie, but was too full!
