24 April 2009 Photo: Heading Out Like A Lamb

With only a week left in April, it is starting to head out like a lamb. The sun is shining and it is supposed to be in the 80s this weekend. The flowers are blooming, the birds are singing, and my time on the road is almost done for the semester. These daffodils popped up in my yard while I was in Vermont earlier in the week and you can see the tulip tree really starting to pop in the background. It's going to be a good weekend in the northeast! Get out and enjoy the sunshine!

The tulip tree bud is getting bigger...check it out. http://wide-angle-lens.blogspot.com/2009/04/13-april-2009-photo-rebirth.html

14 April 2009 Photo: Daffodil Days

Daffodil Days is one of the American Cancer Society's oldest and most beloved fundraising programs. As the first flower of spring, the daffodil represents hope and renewal. To the American Cancer Society (ACS), the daffodil symbolizes the hope we all share for a future where cancer no longer threatens those we love.

Each spring, the Society offers daffodils to donors in appreciation for a contribution. By sending bunches of daffodils to friends, family members, and people touched by cancer, you are sharing a message of hope and raising funds and awareness to help defeat cancer.

This little daffodil is in my yard but had broken or something was trying to eat it. I picked it up and put in on our fence and it made a lovely photo of the day. Even though official daffodil days that support ACS are over, buy someone a bunch of daffodils and make their day! And you can still give to ACS in other ways... http://www.cancer.org/docroot/home/index.asp?level=0

While I still think Mother Nature is not done with us, I am happy to see the tulips and daffodils starting to pop up! The last few days have been gorgeous, but tonight they are predicting some possible flurries south of us.
