Continuing the theme of
the previous post, here are more photos. Last winter was so cold, for so long, that spring was sweeter than usual, with lots of images to savor in old age.

| I love the color of willows in the spring |

| Our house (May 7) |
 |
| Beautiful sky, beautiful tree |
Jess and I took Bonnie for a walk at Asylum Lake on a splendid May day:

| A happy dog, in the car going home |
Closer to home:
 |
| North end of Frays Park |
 |
| A round dandelion, like a fuzzy ball |
Mom told me that the dogwood blossom was reminiscent of Christ's crucifixion - the four petals shaped like a cross; the tips colored with blood from his hands and feet.
I always think of Mom when I see a dogwood.

Our house again (May 18);
the leaves have made remarkable progress |
 |
| Woods by Friendship Village, in the evening light |
 |
| Invasive, but pretty, and very much a sign of spring |
 |
| Also pretty - no idea what this is |
"The world is so full of a number of things,
I’m sure we should all be as happy as kings."
