    Thanks for the Forsythia, Bruce...Brings back great memories! I'd be put in jail today for "abusing" my children! ( Of course THEY both laugh at me when I say that )...Betty :-)

    @Branka : Great shots as usual. I was waiting for your pictures. Thanks for sharing.

    @BD : Beautiful shots, but that first picture was simply awesome. It seems to embody all that is spring, the daffodils welcoming the warmth and the promise of a new beginning. Wow.
