Like Pat, I've lost my funny bone; temporarily, I hope! So these pictures I've just uploaded aren't funny, but spring is my favorite season, and May is my favorite month. It's very beautiful here in VT right now. #914849Dianna Hauf May 04, 2008

Nice image, Ellen. I'm sure you will cycle out of your mood as spring unfolds further. #5883716Ellen Powell May 04, 2008

Awesome find and capture Ellen, love the tree too!!!! #5884068Ellen Powell May 04, 2008
Wow, you guys, thanks! #5884186Laura E. Swan May 04, 2008
I wish the old building/shed could tell us it's story. Any idea what would have been in there? Tools? It's big enough to be an old pioneer home, don't you think? I really like it. The blossoming tree is lovely too! Bet it smelled nice there that day. :) Great entry. -LauraP.S. My Purple House sicked Ellen. I couldn't think of anything funny this month either. I'd rather have beautiful over sucky! Both of yours are BEAUTIFUL!
P.S.S. I took shots of EVERY NEW little plant and weed popping their heads out of the ground (around our house here) for PRETTY NEWNESS and came up empty handed.
The purple tea party is really rockin' now people. Come on back and check it out! #5884295
