Attended her funeral as a child in 1960. She lived just around the corner at the back of of the cemetery.

Perhaps a symbol of hope in these deeply troubling times we again face.
I am travelling back to my home in Scotland next week for the first time in 2 years, looking forward to the spring flowers there and the magnificent long seafront I have missed so much during covid.

Old graves and Spring flowers. Reality and hope.

GA, thanks for the lovely pics and the reassurance that spring is on the way. Much needed today as we are in the midst of a 12 inch snowfall here and the world is mourning the devastating events in Ukraine.

Somehow, you always come through…

The special photos from special viewpoints are just what I need now: I’m also looking forward to spring! (I would have given the butterfly all my attention too!).

Love & Peace
ACHIM

I love the contrast between the gravestones of those who have passed long ago, and the beauty and freshness of the flowering bulbs, promising new life. Just what we need right now as the world is in turmoil.

It came two years ago just as we realised that we were facing a pandemic that none of us knew we would survive, and here today on the brink of what may escalate to a World War.
I am looking forward to seeing it next year and know that I am still here.
