2902. Ronski - 4/9/2005 4:36:41 AM Good luck Jen, and blessings. 2903. Ronski - 4/9/2005 4:39:15 AM And here are some tulips, given to us for Easter, in the last of their glory:
 2904. wonkers2 - 4/9/2005 4:10:10 PM Some of the "socialist" countries, Sweden, for example, have policies which are infinitely more supportive than those in this American Culture of Life or at least of life support. 2905. Ronski - 4/10/2005 3:13:45 PM Down the road, coltsfoot:
 2906. Ronski - 4/10/2005 8:33:37 PM Yesterday morning, at a nearby dam:
 2907. alistairConnor - 4/10/2005 8:44:38 PM We had snow this weekend, too. Nothing serious, nearly covered the ground Saturday morning but mostly gone in the afternoon.
I spent this afternoon fencing : cutting off branches and trunks that had fallen on the electric fence, pulling up blackberry etc, replacing the electric ribbon, I've done about a third of the paddock. I was a couple of years behind, as with all the outdoor work.
By the end of the summer I hope to have the place looking decent, in my eyes at least. 2908. Ronski - 4/10/2005 9:24:12 PM The snow at the dam is the last of a huge amount of snow and ice that catches there as winds whip across the lake. The last snow we had was some wet snow last weekend, that didn't even collect.
There's one little patch left near driveway, where the plow leaves a huge mound of snow during the winter. It formerly was more than ten or twelve feet high:
2909. Ronski - 4/10/2005 9:26:45 PM But there's also this, in my little garden by the road, where I mostly have wildflowers. This is not wild. It's iris reticulata.
 2910. Ronski - 4/10/2005 9:28:13 PM And a white crocus, by the driveway:
 2911. Ronski - 4/10/2005 9:29:33 PM The dam again:
 2912. Ronski - 4/10/2005 9:30:35 PM As you can see, I've been having fun with the camera.
As for the weather, my partner made me put the snow shovels away this afternoon. (But I didn't put them too far away.) 2913. judithathome - 4/10/2005 9:43:57 PM Beautiful work with that camera, Ronski! Love the close-ups of the flowers. 2914. Ronski - 4/10/2005 11:23:50 PM Thanks, judith.
And not to forget indoor plants, Lachanalia, blue form:
 2915. wonkers2 - 4/11/2005 12:32:37 AM Cap'n Dirty sez, "The Cap'n prefers bachanalila!" 2916. jayackroyd - 4/11/2005 1:25:49 AM My posts per page put thoughtful's redwinged blackbird (2816) at the top, and I gotta say that I agree with her. I've an affection for ravens, but redwinged blackbirds are both really attractive, and fun to listen to. 2917. thoughtful - 4/11/2005 1:35:09 PM nice shots ronski...keep'em coming! 2918. jayackroyd - 4/11/2005 2:25:56 PM Ditto. 2919. ronski - 4/12/2005 3:48:21 PM Photoperegrinations yesterday:
Pink daffodils, Rhododendrum mucronulatum, Brooklyn
 2920. ronski - 4/12/2005 3:55:56 PM Chinodoxa, or Glory of the Snow, Grammercy Park
 2921. ronski - 4/12/2005 3:57:47 PM Dove tree, West 17th Street, New York
