Albert, these are FABULOUS pictures! I see you like to smell flowers, too. Mom taught me to smell them. Dad laughs at me every time I do it. That’s because his sniffer is broken so he doesn’t know what he’s missing.
What beauteous blooms and what a relief they are after the long winter …. no wonder you are looking so smiley! Have you ever read the story of Ferdinand? He was a little bull who just wanted to spend his days under a cork tree smelling the flowers in the meadows … he sprung to mind when I looked at these pictures (not that I am implying you are bullish, you understand 🙂 )
The Lady knows about Ferdinand the bull, and I was indeed feeling a little Ferdinand-ish yesterday. Indeed, we are enjoying this beautiful spring after what seemed like a never-ending winter. 🙂
Great photos, spring has arrived everywhere, here there are so many shades of green that you have to pay attention when driving not to get hypnotist by the view. I love spring!!
Beautiful photographs, Albert! You’re so lucky you get to stop and smell the roses (or whatever those flowers are!). I hope you don’t relieve yourself on them? I remember your post about the gazing globes in the park. Walter and Sherman are always complaining about how our moms won’t let them go on other people’s flowers.
Thank you, Carol. There are little signs in this garden admonishing us dogs not to relieve ourselves on the plants. I’ll admit that I was tempted once or twice, but the Lady reminded me with a stern “Not there!” and I controlled myself.

Oh no, your poor Dad. I cannot imagine having a broken sniffer. Sniffing things is one of my favorite things to do.

Wow! That’s pretty. Jacques’ Auntie G lives Upstate and said she still has clumps of snow everywhere.
BTW – you look very handsome. You could be on the cover of Doggie GQ!

Why, thank you! One of our neighbors said there was still snow upstate as well. But we were fortunate–yesterday was beautiful here.

Oh my, thank you, but the Lady has no photography training and really doesn’t know what She’s doing. The camera is an old Sony NEX-3.
