Waiting for Color

Spring is getting here, slowly but surely.  I looked up that idiom.  It means "slow but unstoppable." I sure hope so!  When I use it I mean, "Surely, Spring will come, won't it?!"  Except for a few daffodils and other Spring bulbs things still look pretty brown around here.

 In the meantime, I thought I'd play around with my photo program and see if I could make a slide show of flowers over the years from my garden.  Turn up the volume and make it full screen to get the full effect....

                
I hope this helps tide you over until Spring comes to your part of the country.

      Once you select the photos and music the program does the rest. It takes a while to export the slideshow, though, so there's some waiting involved.

    A lovely two minutes, Cathy! Things around here are still mostly mushy and brown but some green is finally beginning to seep through the mush. I love the colors in your garden too. All the purples and pinks and whites! Exactly what I'd have in a garden - if I had a house that is. Do you have mostly perennials or annuals?

      Mostly perennials. I buy annuals for my pots each year. It was 80 degrees yesterday and will be that warm again this weekend. It will help green things up, but I sure hope it doesn't stay that warm. What will summer be like?!

      God knows. If weather lore is to be believed, particularly-frigid Winters are usually followed by especially-roasty Summers. If that happens this year, I think it will be one more nail in the coffin of Global Warming, which is supposed to mean more extreme temps in both seasons.

    Your garden is just beautiful, Cathy. I enjoyed my visit very much---Spring is exploding around here now. That makes me happy, but tired---as a gardener, I'm sure you know what I mean! ♥

      Yes, indeed. We spent all day planting 4 trees and 6 bushes. Ken did the digging I did the planting.
