Red Fringed Tulips

The first time I saw a fringed tulip, I found them marvelous. . . I still do! These are the first ones I have seen this year.

Help appreciated. . . take a look and see if you can help.

A teacher friend of mine at this site: here is trying to identify some photos with names of a place writen on them and also the old cars in the photo so she might be able to date her photos from a relative. She explains it in detail. PLEASE check out her site for post of May 11th and see if you can help her. Thanks!

Company coming. . .

I didn't even see the bee when I was trying to get this flower in the frame. . . it was an added bonus. Ü

Blog Your Blessings

If you care to join us acknowledging our blessings go here: Blue Panther

My blessings today are the Mother's of the world. Without them, I wouldn't have any friends near and far who are so much a part of my life in person or on the internet. So, if you read this, thank your own MOTHER for me! If she has already gone to heaven like my MOM, then they are probably rejoicing together on this special day made just for them. So as not to leave any MOTHER out, I offer a photo in their honor instead -- to celebrate this special day. Blessings to all Mothers!

Blue Tulip

I have seen a variety of blue flowers but this is the first time I viewed a blue Tulip. How about you?

So many talking to me say it is a black tulip but I disagree and found the answer on the internet. . .

Q. Do black tulips really exist?

A. Yes they do, but in reality they are very dark blue.

So, I guess seeing is in the eye of the beholder.



My internet friend, Malyss, from France, gave me this and I thank her for thinking of me!

Shadows frame the beauty . . .

Making Memories


The beauty of the two colors

Blends into one memorable tulip scene

That shadows frame -- as if to say,

"Look at me."

Before long. . .

The petals will droop

And the flower will disappear.

Yet, another memory lingers!
