Frog on Back Sliding Door - April 27, 2012

           My neighbor called to say that I needed to come over and bring my camera.  This little frog (  about  1 1/2"  )   was outside on her back sliding glass door.   I took many photos of it.  Her cat was very intrigued.

White House Spring Garden Tour in Washington DC - April 23, 2012

         I took this photo of one of the gardens at the White House spring garden tour  this past Sunday.   Since we had such a warm spring,  the tulips and a lot of the other flowers had already bloomed.  It was still beautiful in the gardens.

At the White House Spring Garden Tour in Washington DC - April 22, 2012

        I was able to go to the White House spring garden tour in Washington DC on Sunday with friends.    Even though it was raining,  it was still a wonderful day.   In this photo,  I am standing in front of the oldest tree at the White House.  It is a southern magnolia and was planted by Andrew Jackson in 1830.
