Mother Nature is not cooperating at all with my attempts to share with you the many sights and wonders of our gorgeous countryside this spring. In other words, rain, rain and...wait for it...wait for it... more rain. Waiting and wishing for sunshine have become as tedious as watching the sands of time drift slowly by (hence my lovely picture above).
However the grass is green, super-green, the flowers are in full bloom, brightening up the gloomy days and when the rain does pause, our community lawn mowing competition is generating at full throttle. On less windy days the delicate pink and white blossoms stay on our gorgeous trees and our neighborhood groundhog "Bubba" can be seen scooting himself around the wetlands. (Bubba is aptly named and will be stalked until a good photo can be taken.)
Since shooting photos in pouring rain truly isn't my thing; sharing some photos from last spring and summer might just brighten up my day and inspire some readers to come visit Lancaster County.
