I like to use my PhotoPOSTCard series to showcase a favorite image or to bring attention to a special event or activity.

PhotoPOSTcard: In Memorium

Remembering and honoring today all those that died  – both in wars and due to Covid 19. And also remembering my mother who passed away on Memorial Day last year. Her favorite saying after emigrating to the US was “God Bless America”.

PhotoPOSTcard: A Classic California Sunset

I love to watch sunrises and sunsets over water. But since I am not much of a morning person, sunsets on the west coast are my favorite. This one was especially dramatic as the tide was going out at Asilomar State Beach on the Monterrey Peninsula in California.  I was there for a quilting class with the Empty Spools Seminars program and the spectacular beach sunsets were a bonus.

Thanks for visiting.

PhotoPOSTCard: Sending a Vase Full of Hope

Every fall I plant a few bags of tulip bulbs in my garden. I think of them as little packages of hope and promises that will bring color and sunshine after a drab and cold winter. Once they bloom, I cut them and bring them into the house where they bring me joy and make me smile. These days, it’s the little things that make one happy that are all that much more important.

From my family to yours, wherever you are in the world, here’s hoping you have a joyous and safe weekend and if you celebrate it, a happy Easter or Passover.

PhotoPOSTcard: Spring Symphony Opus 6

I love foxglove flowers and have tried to grow them, but we do not really have the right conditions here in southeast PA. They like cooler weather and we get hot and humid pretty quickly in summer. Here at Longwood Gardens they start them early and grow them in their greenhouses under the appropriate environment.

Happy spring and stay safe.
