Our World!!

And another month is well on its way!! By golly, time flies whether you’re having fun or not!! But, fortunately, I do have fun!!  Time for Our World and I’m a tad tired of my gray, grim, wet weather even though I know it’s mid winter and what else should expect!! Well, anyway, here are some pics of different seasons and, even I have to admit, they all have their own beauty!!  Hope all of you have a great week!! Enjoy!!




After a mild but GRAY winter I’m sure you can see here what I’m looking forward to!!
Thank you for sharing your world with us!!

do you know what kind of tree the bumpy one is! its texture is fascinating. here too, one must make one's own sunshine, but with the birds singing a way just outside of my window, hope reigns!

It won't be too long before the green shoots are coming up through the warm ground again. The photos just remind me of all the colours we miss in the winter.

Wonderful series of photos, Sylvia!

Great photos - the flowers are so bright and beautiful. The trees are beautiful too - I wonder about that one with all the 'bumps' on it and why it grows like that?

Beautiful shots from nature and lovely flowers.

Beautiful - your area is so gorgeous in the summer. But I must admit, the grey winters would get to me after a while. Have a great week, Sylvia!

Your pics have me looking forward to Spring.

Lovely bright and cheery views Sylvia. Sure beats what I see when I look outside. Snow, ice and grey skies.

I'd rather have cold with blue skies than mild and grey! I do love these splashes of colours!

Colour brings cheer!

You are right: all seasons are beautiful and interesting. I prefer the four seasons in the north European countries to the tropical monsoons in the country where I grew up.
Have a great week, Sylvia!

Stunning!!! Such beauty...everywhere! I especially loved the tulips today. That was one of my father's favorites. He had 'em everywhere in our yard when I was growing up.

That fiery azalea is a wonder to behold! You're getting an early start on making me homesick for spring flowers! But I don't mind. Love them and the memories.

What Can I Say?
I'm interested in almost everything. Use to like to travel, but it's too expensive now. I take Tai Chi classes, swim, volunteer in a Jump-start program for pre-schoolers. I'm an avid reader and like nearly everyone these days I follow politics avidly. I'm a former teacher and Special Projects Coordinator for a Telecommunications company, Assistant to the President of a Japanese silicon wafer manufacturing company. Am now enjoying retirement -- most of the time. I have two daughters, one son-in-law and two sons scattered all over the country. No grandchildren.
