For a smile as wide as a country sunrise
Good morning and Happy Wednesday to all of you! Muffin is looking at me to remind me that she meows good morning to you all as well! It was another beautiful and sunny day yesterday, I think our warmest day yet this year. Today should be more of the same, though clouds will be moving in and rain for tomorrow. That’s good though, it will help to melt the snow faster along the river path where the sun can’t get at it. I probably won’t try that path again until next week. Right now I will stay on the street where it’s nice dry walking. There was a real noticeable difference in the snow yesterday, it’s disappearing so fast, even back here where the sun doesn’t really touch it until late afternoon. I had my windows open again yesterday too, so nice to get that fresh air after being closed up all winter. The robins were singing so nicely all day yesterday, so wonderful to listen to them again.
And now for a look at today’s pics…
And one of my favorites, bluebells, these being a garden variety. They are a bit larger and darker than the wild variety.
Though you can’t see the size difference, the color difference is noticeable in these bellflowers. But still beautiful anyway, and these are sturdier than the garden cousins.
There is our pics for today everyone, I hope you have a wonderful day, stay safe and God bless!
Steve and Muffin.

You and Muffin stay safe too.

My back “snapped” 3 times in half an hour this morning, made me yell😲 and it was hard to move afterward,😬🤸♂️ but it’s almost back to normal now. Not sure what happened. But it might have been because I was bent backward for so long last night taking pics of the moon. Will have to watch that.🤔 Did the same thing tonight.🙄 Sigh. It’s getting cold,😳 I hope it is rain and not snow.😬 Have a good day writing Simon!😁😸✍

What did you do? Bent your back? You should stop thinking you are flexible Steve 😉 We can be flexible, not in th pain areas pls. You still have to watch the moon? How about lie down with lot of pillows behind? You should find a better way to not to hurt yourself. Take care Steve.

Hey Simon! That’s a great idea!😃 I will try that next time, bring a couple pillows on the deck and lie down to get my moon pics,🌙📷 that’s perfect.😀 How come I never thought of that?🤔 Sigh.🙄 Anyway, I will do it next time.😁😸 It will be easier to hold the camera steady too.😜📷 Have a good evening Simon!😁😸🌙 We have 2700 cases of Covid-19 here in Ontario now.😕😿
