alexSweet Alex begins our day with worship before the alter of our computer, as I indulge myself with this web diary. For those who enjoy the accompaniment of a clear voice select this link. It will continue to play if you go back to the original tab to read. I promise, it's worth the extra 2 minutes.

I cherish comments.

Because of the pesky spammers I ask that those who wish to share will take time to select "register" from the menu on the right and complete the process by verifying your email. (Don't worry the weblog tells you just how to do it.) Once done log on again and you will see the invitation to comment just below the post. Caveat: you must include a valid e-mail address in order to be accepted.

Spring

There is some disquiet that the dogwoods were past full bloom on April 15 and now the roses preceded Mothers' Day by a few days.  It seems only I and the birds have made note as they also have fledged a few days early.

But, over all, a good spring. The lake is full and the roadside fences bowers of honeysuckle, blackberry and country roses. The Kudzu a victim of hard winter freeze is late in its annual assault on the beauty of diverse vegetation.

The new grass is taking hold and is  green as ... well, grass; and no intrusive medical things in the immediate future. I have had great joy in planting my patio garden myself this year.

A new joy is the under eaves of my shed has been chosen by a family of Phoebes.  Small gray birds blending in with the titmice and chickadees they first missed my attention.  The territorial behavior of the male every time I go to the car however could not be missed and then I found the nest.

I am getting to know my point and shoot camera a little better now. I hope these images can be enjoyed. The river shots are of the Chattahoochee just below Helen.
