Scenes From The Hood

The following are scenes from a sunny Saturday walk in May.


Lilacs alway make me remember.... (joke that probably only my Mother will get)


I loved this chartreuse tree. Spring colors are awesome!


Can you spot the tiny person gardening in this picture?


The gorgeous colors of nature.


This tree could not look more beautiful even in the fall.


Wouldn't it be fun to stand under this tree while white petals showered down on you?


Nothing like the vivid color of iris in the bright sunshine!


I like that cops live in this neighborhood.


This homeowner is really into landscaping - there's even a water feature!


This is Cubs country, baby!



Spring's harbinger.


I wonder if they'd let me sit and swing for a while.


I love tulips. Some of my peeps don't understand it.


OK, it's May 17th dude - no one wants to look at your snow plow! WTF!

I love purple flowers.


Yeah! More tulips!!!!


The tulips that belong to the neighbor guy who fixed up his garage like another room in the house and hangs out in it three seasons of the year.


Bed of purple flowers in 2 shades.


Pretty birch with plantings beneath.

This was a great walk and a great day to be alive!
