May 2008 Photo Contest

I was graciously informed that I needed to start this months Photo Contest. I am already a day late so.....let's get started!!

It seems that this is the winter that won't go away. There seems to be far too much rain, hail, sleet, snow...You name it. On top of that we've had flooding, earthquakes and twisters. So lets get into the spirit of Spring/Summer even if the weather won't cooperate. Here goes:

"April Showers bring May flowers"
Let's say that your Airsteam next to blooming anything will work. I'll be looking for photos that just scream spring.

Now, once again, let's get started!!!!!

Not an Airstream....but

Hooked up and went to Pensacola, FL for our maiden '08 voyage and while making preparations the day before it snowed on us. But took the boys again to watch the Blue Angels practice as we were parked a 1/4 mile away:

Fabulous photos! Loving the bluebells.
This is not a contender, but I can't resist including it because I'm in rose heaven right now.
Wish I could post the fragrance for you, nine9three!

Wow.....I am very impressed!! This has been an awsome first day and the pictures are fantastic. So good in fact that some are crying uncle. But don't give up just know that the bar has been raised. Be innovative....Think Wally!!


I can't wait to see what's coming up next. This promises to be a great contest. Spring is definitely on the way.

Same here - in order to get the Ladybug in the back ground of what is blooming here I would have to take the wheels off to lower her to the daffodil level....

Does rain count as being Spring...Hey but we were just in Ohio - so I will have to check out the Rally photos to see if either Peter or I captured both LadyBug and blooming something or another in the same shot

But that first entry WOW!!! that will be a really really really hard one to beat. To have such spring colours so soon
