April 24th,
I walked across the green  lawn to my sister house to let the dog out, such a Beautiful dog, he is a Norweign Elk Hound. He's always glad to see me and always wanting to play.

The Blueberries are quite green with beautiful white flowers, the tulips are dressed in their yellow, red and pink attire,the Dogwood has Beautiful flowers swaying in the breeze of Spring.
And we can't forget the red Maples with their flyers.
 I see a Robin with twigs in its mouth, ready to start setting up house keeping, the wrens are flying in and out of the birdhouse making ready for babies. I guess you can say Spring has sprung.


"When daisies pied and violets blue
And lady's smocks all silver-white
and cuckoo buds of yellow hue
Do paint the meadows with delight."
                                 SHAKESPEARE - SONG
