Spring has finally gotten a move on over here and when I prowl through our garden there is something new to see every day. I must have shot a couple thousand photos this year already – too lazy to count them right now, but there have been over 300 today alone.
Of course, many of them [...]
More fun in the garden
Spring Has Sprung

In Praise of Horses
