Change is difficult sometimes - especially when it changes something that's such a part of your 'frame' - like unobstructed scenery. What struck me was how absolutely delighted they must be to be YOUR neighbor - Its been a long time since I've taken time to visit others 'gardens' - So happy to find you still here - with photos that just defy description.<br />With love and wishes for the most bug free, color filled, long lasting gardens evver<br />Linda in FloridaLindaDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07813692333024658399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20997403.post-37864235684111615982011-05-31T16:26:06.972-04:002011-05-31T16:26:06.972-04:00Your flowers are gorgeous!!!

It just opens to the sun looking up so strong and happy.<br />The way the sun is shining through the lovely colors is awesome. <br />I tried to take a picture of my well blossomed strawberry patch but the blossoms just looked like leaves with sun shining on them. One day I will post some of my flowers too. You are such an inspiration to me Kerri. Thank you.<br />Oh yes, I was wondering, do you use cow manure on your flowers?Mountain Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05484592294033354129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20997403.post-7772279007974610332011-05-31T02:46:39.251-04:002011-05-31T02:46:39.251-04:00So beautiful with all the tulips.

What a beautiful spring you have had! I was quite interested to read about your new Amish neighbors, and your photos of their house-raising were fascinating! Our part of Ohio also has a large Amish settlement, at one time, the largest in the US. There are not so many immediately around us now, but not long ago, we would occasionally hear the clip clop of their horse and buggies going down the road. I miss that sound! Do you see their buggies coming and going now? I hope you and Ross are doing well.Judy Birmingham (Seeing Anew Blog)https://www.blogger.com/profile/13367702378442449544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20997403.post-47261531418304824412011-05-26T10:32:29.764-04:002011-05-26T10:32:29.764-04:00Hi Kerri!

The countryside and your garden are all looking so green ~ isn't that a welcome sight? After the long winter, it's very refreshing. <br />I would be torn up about having all the new buildings after unobstructed views for so long but at least your Amish neighbors won't be noisy! Why is it suddenly developing ~ did a landowner recently sell a big parcel of land? I agree with Annie in Austin tho ~ it will be better to look at then what most of us endure.<br />Happy Spring to you Kerri and thank you for all your thoughtful comments. I always enjoy reading them.Kathleenhttp://kaseyskorner.typepad.com/kaseys_korner/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20997403.post-43527318648638102152011-05-26T10:30:03.707-04:002011-05-26T10:30:03.707-04:00Your gardens are just beautiful, Kerrie.

I can imagine your frustration at not being able to get long shots without buildings intruding, but really pleased that you are enjoying your new neighbours.<br /><br />Your tulips are so brilliantly vivid against the lushness of your lawns and the muted colours of the trees beyond.<br /><br />I hope you get some warm sunny weather soon and some free days to enjoy it all.

The tulips are stunning- you've been busy planting those bulbs over the years :)<br />I think it is so hard to capture the light sometimes with a camera and when you need to use a flash it over compensates but your photos are always lovely.<br />I love the pic of the Amish busy building- have only seen this in the films. If l were to pick my neighbours l think l'd be quite pleased with these Amish folk.

You always have a beautiful garden, Kerri - but this is over-the-top for you! It's impossible to choose a favorite. <br /><br />Probably the Amish barns will look interesting & picturesque in your wide photos, unlike the parked cars, mailboxes, trash cans, open garage doors, air-conditioning units, or thousand-dollar driveway basketball hoop systems we more urban gardeners have to shoot around.
