It's a Dog's Life...

with a cat who thinks she's a dog! This is how I found the crew on Saturday morning, having a bit of a rest.

Birds of a Feather....

Well, you know the rest!

Preen Like a Queen

A goose carefully grooming her (his?) feathers. I'm not sure how to tell a male from a female goose, but there must be a way!

Piggy Pile

Almost three years ago, we had five adorable beagle puppies join us. Here are three of them snuggled up together having a nap in their bed/pool. They were so much fun.

Just Riding My Bike

http://sepiascenes.blogspot.com

A couple of boys riding in the Mansfield, PA Fabulous 1890s Weekend Parade a couple of years ago. Mansfield is the site of the first football game played "under the lights" in 1892.

Welcome to Holland!

Well, not really. But I can't resist a gaggle of tulips like this one.

Lilacs

The lilacs did survive the frost I thought had gotten them. Hardly little fellows, I guess.

Sepia Scenes: Not for Sitting Anymore

Visit here to see more Sepia Scenes!

This old chair was on the porch of an antique store. I'm not sure if it is safe for sitting anymore, but it looks great for decorating.

Dandy Lions

Many people don't like dandelions, but they are the favorite flower of little children. Kids will keep busy picking them on the playground, so they can carry them in their little fists into their teachers. I think they are happy little "flowers", and the sight of them all over the place is joyful. Maybe we should all take a minute to look at things through the eyes of a child.

Back Yard Visitor

My husband called me outside and pointed out two deer who were in the woods at the edge of our yard. We slowly crept up on them, and managed to get a couple fairly decent shots before they snorted loudly and took off. I hope they keep out of the garden!

The Long Dusty Road

http://scenicsunday.blogspot.com

A typical dirt road in Bradford County, Pennsylvania. It is a big farming county, although, sadly, the number of farmers who can afford to stay in business is dwindling.

A Yellow Tulip

This is a lone yellow tulip that was hidden among the purple ones.

Weatherbeaten

An old shed door in need of some paint. Or maybe the peeling textures are "appealing".

Sepia Scenes: The Star

http://sepiascenes.blogspot.com

A star that hangs on my front porch.

More Tulips

What can I say? These are among my favorites. Maybe because they are so fleeting in their existence.

Blooming Tulips

Such a pretty sight, stretching toward the sun.

Company for Dinner!

A little bee enjoying his snack on the branch of blossoms.

Scenic Sunday: A Row of Blossoms

The trees in full blossom near the Citizens and Northern Bank, in Troy, Pennsylvania.

Courthouse Square

This is the scene in front of the Citizens and Northern Bank. The flowering trees line the drive up lane.

A Tree Full of Blossoms

This was taken in downtown Troy, in front of the bank. Lovely white blossoms, which the bees were thoroughly enjoying!
