Today we took separate Daily Walks. OH went one way this morning, I went the other way this afternoon. We haven’t fallen out, it is just the way it happened. There was an advantage to being on my own, I had more opportunity to be nosy. I peered over walls and around fences, I crossed the road when something caught my eye. I examined the ground, I looked into the sky, all the while retaining my best suspicion-free demeanour. There were several rather pink people sunbathing in their front gardens, I kept my camera far away. These were not my quarry, I was looking for flowers. And I found them; back-lit tulips in a state of disrobing, forget-me-nots growing from cracks in the tarmc, marigolds perched on walls. This was my favourite and, after first checking for bees in the buzzing bush, I buried my nose into the blossom to enjoy my first scent of lilac for the year.
Daily Walk – Lilac Time

Nothing like the scent of lilac. And I adore “…back-lit tulips in a state of disrobing”

I have been doing same, then putting them on FaceBook page for cousin in Canada, she reciprocates and we both get two walks for the price of one! x

Ha! They are telephone wires. I thought they looked a bit like sunrays.

I thought they looked like the Sunshine Skyway Bridge. It looks odd because there are so many of them going into so many different directions.

A wonderful find. Your flowers seem a bit further on than ours, but are all the more welcome for that. I found some forget-me-nots on my walk – bored of keeping to the path, I ventured off into a field I used to play in when I was younger and was rewarded. I had not been there for ages even though it is close to where I live.

It is lovely exploring places close to home, but ignored until now. Some good will come from this strange episode, I am certain of it. Love forget-me-nots!
