More beautiful photos. The tree trunk along the back fence is stunning.
ReplyDeleteThe bark is nice.
DeleteLove The Wilkes Street Tunnel. Did you guys steal it from England - just like London Bridge and Ringo Starr? Also love the "Dump Trump" badge.
ReplyDeleteWe will gladly trade you Trump for another bridge.
DeleteLove your rainbow Dump Trump button!
ReplyDeleteI wondered if anyone would notice
DeleteI love when bloggers do post like these. You get to know them better, and a chance to see what they see everyday and the area they live in. Great photos.
ReplyDeleteThanks,
DeleteI love the tunnel and the bare bark of the tree trucks, I love photos of everyone's 'hoods.
ReplyDeleteAnd I also did not miss the "Dump _____" button; we all need those.
I have a good supply of them (in assorted colors to go with any outfit); want me to send you some?
DeleteI have another button that simply asks "Is He Dead Yet?"
DeleteFirst blooms are always so welcome. Mine are daffodils right now.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed this nice variety of photos!
That was the first tree I say starting to bloom.
DeleteLots of close to home images today. You live in a part of the country full of history. By the way, the Panda isn't the only one who agrees.
ReplyDeleteOne of the reasons I wanted to live here
DeleteYou live in such a beautiful area...so much to see within a short distance. The cherry blossom photo is beautiful. We've had some recent cold weather in the 20s which could turn the cherry blossom blooms around here brown.
ReplyDeleteThere is wonder around most of us, you see it around you.
DeleteI do enjoy seeing the little discoveries close to home, they often turn out to be the most rewarding. That old tunnel and those early blooms tell quite a story of change and seasons moving along. Reminds me that you don’t always have to travel far to find something worth noticing.
ReplyDeleteThe old railroad tunnel is a pedestrian way, it has been there since the mid 1800's.
DeleteThe tunnel is wonderful. I wonder if there is remaining soot on the roof. Your protest badge is very mild, but to the point. That was a nice little collection of photos.
ReplyDeleteI think the stones and bricks are forever sooty.
DeleteThank you for showing us around.
ReplyDeleteGlad to.
DeleteLOVE the pin!
ReplyDeleteJ found it online and ordered several.
