Hope all OK in your area too dear Penny. More storms coming to us both, next weekend looks like a washout once again! Never had so much rain around here - that we can recall. Azaleas just opening, and are lovely, but they won't last for Easter by looks of it with so much water expected. Grass grew inches the past 2 days - 'mower man' will be powering up again today!
My soul sighs to think that you are out in your garden picking these lovely Spring blossoms. Although the snow has melted and Spring has been arriving slowly, we are only now sighting things poking their green noses through the still cold earth. But soon, very soon. So glad the storm passed your way.
Our weather has been so crazy, two nights ago I thought for sure the roof would blow off and the rain was coming down so hard it sounded like a freight train, and it was blowing sideways! On my walk the next morning I thought for sure there would be nary a blossom left but lucky for me there were still so many beautiful cherry blossoms on the tree and of course lots of petal confetti on the ground. I hoep that you are having a great week!
A BREATH OF FRESH AIR is a fresh version of my former three year blog ACROSS THE POND which can still be accessed by clicking on the title above. I'm a transplanted Brit enjoying life in North Carolina.
Sixty two years of journeying back and forth across the wide Atlantic Ocean have kept me busy…….and made my life very interesting! Although I've now visited all seven continents, I continue to travel and look forward to sharing new places around the world. I love taking photos! All images are my own unless noted otherwise. Please do not use my photos without a request. I enjoy sharing and will usually say OK!
So glad that the winds and tornadoes didn't arrive Mary and that is a lovely bouquet of spring flowers for the home.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear the storm passed by without damage!

ReplyDeleteGorgeous! Happy to hear you survived. When the weather bends flowers over it is my sign to rescue them as you have done.
ReplyDeleteGlad that the storm was not the truly foul variety. The flowers are marvelous.
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty bouquet. Glad the storms weren't too bad for you, Mary.
