White Blossoms 148:365

Proof that the sun was out today, if only for a minute.

Inside an Iris 147:365

So vibrant!

The Beach 146:365

Mid-way through an eight mile run on a gorgeous Sunday.

Hawthorn Tree 145:365

This one isn't as sharp.  The wind was blowing.  Still, such pretty flowers.

Leopards Bane 144:365

I continue to be amazed at the macro capabilities of my phone...

Peony Bud 143:365

I love this shot of my peony.  Can't wait for them to open.

Budding Rhododendron 142:365

All we need is one warm day and this place is going to be ablaze with color.

Unopened Iris 141:365

So close...

Lupine 140:365

Reminds me of my mom - all decked out in pink and purple.

Top of the Hill 139:365

My motivation to run up the hill:  The view from the top.

Day at the Park 138:365

Isn't she adorable?!?

Rescued Lupine 137:365

This is a lupine that I rescued.  It was growing in the gravel last spring and I dug it up and put it in a planter.  It's doing remarkably well.

This is also a cheat.  The photo was not taken today.  I believe I have picked the wrong time to try to do a project 365.  I will press on and do my best, but because of complications in my life, I may not take a photo each day.  Sad, but just the way things are for me right now.

Backyard Lupine 136:365

I bought this lupine in memory of my mom.  How nice that it bloomed so close to Mother's Day.

Columbine 135:365

Every day there is a new surprise in the yard.

Self-Portrait 134:365

I decided to go really short again.  I like it and it's so much easier to take care of.

And yes, that's the prize-winning Blowing In The Wind in the background.

More Lilacs 133:365

We need a scratch-n-sniff app for Blogger. 

Old Red Truck 132:365

Caught a glimpse of this in a field behind the local grocery store and had to drive over for a closer look.

Lilacs are Blooming 131:365

Finally!

Gone to Seed 130:365

Another macro shot with the Samsung.  I am loving that little camera!

These are all over my yard - the dandelions have been ferocious this year.  Gotta find a way to see the beauty. 

Dainty Pink Blossoms 129:365

I can't get enough of these, this time of year.  All the trees are blooming and the air is filled with fragrance.  I wish it could last all summer long, but I know it won't.  So I keep taking pictures of all the pretty, dainty blossoms.

Coffee Spoon 128:365

I do love my coffee.

I Mean Red 127:365

Seriously red.

Dandelion 126:365

Spent the day running errands.  Snapped this photo with my phone during a quick pit stop at home.

Waiting for the Race to Start 125:365

Bloomsday 2013:  I was faster than 2011 but not as fast as 2012.  It was HOT and I was not ready for it, so I'm pretty happy with my official time of 1:27. 

Weeping Cherry Blossoms 124:365

The tree in my backyard is finally blooming.  It's been a glorious day.

Sunset over Division 123:365

Sunset over Division Street in Spokane.  We were underneath the overhang at Dick's, having a burger after picking up our race packets for Sunday. 

Yellow Tulip Anthers 122:365

Just playing around with the macro setting on the Samsung.  I'm liking it so far!

May Day 121:365

Happy May Day, everyone!
