BEAUTY ON THE GROUND AND IN THE SKY

It's June! The months seem to fly by faster and faster. 

I just want everyone to know,it has nothing to do with getting older. OK,so maybe it does,but I refuse to admit that.Now,that that has been said and I can go on to sharing the beauty I see all around me.

On a recent nature/birding walk,I found these little Violets blooming to their hearts content,right in the middle of the path.I just love seeing them pop up in these unexpected places.

Standing on my yard,my eyes turned upward to the leaves on the Silver Maple tree and I just knew I needed to get a picture.I think the Maple Leaf is such a beautiful shape and now I was seeing them against that blue sky and with the sunshine lighting them up.It was gorgeous to stand under that tree and see all this. I chose to just show one cluster of leaves,because showing them all just seemed too busy.

At my deck the potted flowers are beginning to show their beauty as well. This year I chose the pink and white theme.I have pink Wave Petunias with a white Geranium in the centre.

This is one of the first flowers on the Geraniums,pure white with tiny yellow stamens in the middle.

For today I will not show the whole plant,but instead focus on just one flower. I love Petunias and the Wave series usually do very well.My Mother loved her Petunias,so each year when I plant them I think of her.

We have had some spectacular sunsets this spring. I don't always get out there to capture the beauty,but the other day I was at the right spot to witness an amazing display of beauty,as God said Goodnight to the world.

One more image from the same night.I love scenes like this and am so thankful that I am able to capture a small part of that beauty with my camera.

 June will be a busy month for me.It is the last month of school before the summer break and there will be lots of field trips to take and students to shuttle from place to place.

It is my prayer that I can do my part to get everyone to their destinations safely and so finish another year of bus driving on a positive note.
