Such Lovely Colors


My recent trip to my old neighborhood allowed me to see and photograph beautiful blooms that I rarely see where I currently live.  It is now June and around my neck of the woods, the tulips only bloomed in the last couple of weeks and are now spent.  I feel somewhat robbed of my Spring!

The high desert isn't the most colorful of places.  Some find hillsides spotted with juniper trees to be a beautiful sight.  But to me, I miss the lush, green hills of the Willamette Valley and the abundant flowers.  Yes it rains a lot there ... but I LOVE the rain!  And look how colorful the rain makes everything.

Such lovely colors.
