Each Spring for some time now we have some uninvited guests have shown up. Today they were out front. We would love them to stay but they would destroy all the vegetation around the pond and just can't have that!

Quick Walk in the Yard this Morning

Predawn Tulips

Its pretty interesting how God made these spring beauties. He fashioned them so that they will close up at night and when it rains. The tulips form a cup and if left open during the rain they would fill up and fall over, thus destroying the plant and the flower. The LORD saw to it that this wouldn't happen. Below are tulips as few people see them!
Enjoy!

A Walk the Morning After Working Out Back

Walking Through The Yard

Sorry My memory card filled up before I was done (both times!) I was going to redo it then I thought this isn't NBC, ABC or CBS. It is just us!

Sitting in the Yard

Walking in the Garden

I just came in from a little walk through my backyard. It is really all paths now With beds on the sides of the paths. I love going out, listening to the birds sing, seeing what has growing and just seeing God's handiwork. It renews my spirit.

Early Spring Blooms Backyard Tour

Many people do not realize that April in the northeast is a time of small but beautiful blooms. While it is true that April Showers bring May flowers there is a beauty that April brings as well. Here you can see what is going on right outside in my backyard. Enjoy the tour!

Each year I have admired the beautiful blossoms of forsythia lining Meadowbrook Parkway here on Long Island. Here it is:

Cross Country and Track Reunion

Over the past 24 hours we went back to the early 70's. My teammates gathered here at my home on the eve of the Second Annual Paul Limmer Invitational in honor of our coach. What a beautiful day for the track meet. It was so good being with the guys I spent most of the hours of my high school years. God bless you all! You made my heart lighter the past few hours!

I put a little clip of our coach telling one of his stories at the end of this post.

This Morning in the Backyard

Here is a tour of the back and a clip of the fish in the pond.
