We Love Tulips

We already had three sunny days. Utah's spring time is very pleasant indeed! (all photos taken this morning)


When I was washing dishes this morning, I noticed this frame of view from the window above our kitchen sink. Our peach trees and cheery tree are blooming.

Wild Deers' Invasion

My wife took this picture on April 22^nd 2009 about 7:44Am from our house. They are in our neighbor Rick and Nancy's backyard.

Wild deers had eaten 11 tulips on this Tuesday (04/21/2009) and I had to spray the "Deer-off" again.
