Let's Go Blue Jays

There are a few things that make me feel like I go back in time. One is going to the Drive-In, and another is catching the ball game on the radio. A wonderful Saturday afternoon for me includes outdoors, sunshine, and the Jays on the radio. Good times.

Daffodils (Various)

Walking around outside I've found various patches of daffodils. They are one of my most favourtie flowers, and it always brightens a Spring day to see one blooming. A sure sign that winter is behind us.

From our backyard, just starting to come up. This patch is always late.

From Grandma's flowerbed. It was nice to see this one blooming.

Some blooming in the ditch along the side of the road. They grow where they want!

Reading in the Sunshine

I borrowed J.K. Rowling's new book from the library and gave it a quick read in the backyard. The book is a transcript (with some illustrations) of a commencement speech she gave at Harvard University in 2008 and it was a nice read. I love reading outside in the sunshine.

Tree Buddy

Living in a rural area I am surrounded by forest. Except for the ten years I spent in Toronto, I have always had many, many trees around me. I like it. This tree keeps watch over the side of the road and I walk or drive past him daily. 

Full Moon Fever

My camera is much better for daytime shots, but I've been spending some of my 30x30 Challenge time outside in the evening too. The temperature has been nice, still warm from the sunny days we've been having. Plus no mosquitoes yet, so I'm maximizing my time out there before they come for me.

There was a full moon on the weekend, and I enjoyed some time outside looking at it. So pretty.
