100/365, #358: What's Inside?

The inside of a tulip!
I'm finally up to 100 photos. :-)

99/365, #210: One Dozen

Yes, I cropped this photo to get only twelve so I could use it for a theme! These are growing in my back yard and I wanted to get a pic of them before it was too late.

98/365, #246: Purple

Another sign of spring, little violets all over the yard!

97/365, #323: The Wild Side


My great-niece's 2nd birthday party was at Chuck E. Cheese last weekend. That's a wild place on a Sunday afternoon!
This pic is for my dear friend Vicki who just loves Chuck E.!! :-)

93/365, #222: Painted

This photo was taken at Tampa's Lowry Zoo on my trip last month. I adjusted the hue/saturation to +100 and loved the bright colors!

92/365, #139: Hands

The new Mr. & Mrs. cutting their cake.

91/365, #304: Stop the Action

This is my almost-2-year-old great niece, she was the flower girl at my niece's wedding. She rarely stops moving but stopped to look down the stairs! Isn't she adorable?

90/354, #12: Antique



Taken at the Smith-Trahern Mansion in Clarksville, TN where my niece got married last month.

89/365, #326: Things with Wings

Another shot at Central Park today.

88/365, #270: Seasonal


I'd love to see these beauties all year round, but we only see them in the spring season here in northeast Kentucky.

87/365, #300: Spring

Spring at Central Park in Ashland means thousands of daffodils blooming!

I'm almost caught up!

Eighteen posts in one day, that's a record--I'm only a few posts behind now! It's so hard to believe that April is here already.

My goal for spring is to stay almost caught up on my blog and to find some time to comment on the blogs of others!

86/365, #115: Furry



This furry friend was enjoying some nuts for breakfast.

85/365, #69: Crossroads


This photo shows how X Cave got its name--it forms an X in the middle!

84/365, #150: Holes



I wonder where the holes in this tree came from?

83/365, #349: Vine

This very large grapevine grew into an interesting shape!

82/365, #236: Playground

This "house" is part of one of the playgrounds at the park.

81/365, #117: Gap



Another part of the trail, up the rocks and through the gap. I had to ask my nephew to hold my camera so I could get up the rocks here.

80/365, #350: Wall

I saw an animal in the shape on the right of this wall of Cascade Cave. Do you see it???

79/365, #342: Underneath

The view from under a natural bridge at
Carter Caves State Park.

78/365, #279: Shadows

77/365, #105: Follow the Leader


Following the tour guide into X Cave!

76/365, #301: Stairs


After climbing up and down the rocks, we got to go up some stairs. Easier, but still not easy!

75/365, #264: Rolling


The boys enjoyed rolling down the hill in the leaves!

74/365, #223: Pair


It's not easy keeping up with a pair of 7-year-olds on this kind of trail!!

73/365, #263: Rock


These rocks were part of the trail (meaning that was the only way to continue except for turning back). The boys went down them quickly but I went down them very slowly and carefully!

72/365, #10: Aged


It takes about 200 years for the stalactites and stalagmites to form one cubic inch. Imagine how "aged" this column is!

71/365, #166: Larger Than Life


These trees are much larger than my nephew!

70/365, #345: Upside Down


Where there are caves there are bats, right?? The boys were very excited to see the bats, I wasn't so excited!

69/365, #36: Broken

This is the first in a series of photos I'll post from Carter Caves State Park where I've been for the past 3 days with my parents, nephew, and nephew's friend. The boys noticed this broken tree and told me to take a picture of it!
