walking, April 21 and 22

.

Walking over to Raja Rani for lunch.

It had rained very hard, and nearly straight sideways, about half an hour before I left the office for lunch.

I wondered if this guy was recouperating from having been caught in the cold wet. He stayed right there long enough for me to get several shots.





Trash day in the student ghetto. Depressing how much trash there is on the ground (never made it into the trash bins or the recycle bins)......





I walked home on the 21st, but only took a few pics.

Daffodils.







Magnolia.





On the 22nd, I was dropped at the library to return books, and to pick up some that were on hold.

I turned around to look at the red maple flowers, and the flag in front of the library caught my eye. It's hard to see in the pic -- it was more visible in person, snapping in the wind.....





Forsythia (and shadows) in the bright sun.





Fake forsythia and real daffodils, in the bright sun.





Mossy brick, in the shade.

You are most welcome. I belong to a big corgi mailing list, and I found the support of that list to be comforting when I had to put my old girl down.

If I can share back a bit of that comfort, I am glad to do so.

Thanks for the nice words about the pics. :-)
