'Our' Mt. Nebo Cabin

(This picture can be enlarged by clicking on it.  Clicking a second time will make it full-sized.)

Betsy and I have been going to the same cabin on Mt. Nebo in Arkansas for about eight years.  As you can see, it’s beautiful and and just the right size for two people.  It’s in a perfect spot for enjoying the afternoon light, and for capturing those gorgeous Mt. Nebo sunsets.

Whitewater Falls

(This picture can be enlarged by clicking on it.  Clicking a second time will make it full-sized.)

In March Betsy and I visited Whitewater Falls near Sapphire, North Carolina.  We’d been there before, but this was a beautiful morning, and there were very few people around.  It seemed as if we had this gorgeous waterfall all to ourselves.

Betsy and I made our first waterfall-hunting expedition to West Virginia in April, 2010.  Brush Creek Falls in Pipestem Resort State Park was one of the waterfalls we visited on that trip.

Rainbow at Cane Creek Falls

(This picture can be enlarged by clicking on it.  Clicking a second time will make it full-sized.)

Betsy and I don’t always see a rainbow when we visit a waterfall, but when we visited Cane Creek Falls in Fall Creek Falls State Park here in Tennessee, we were fortunate enough to see and capture this rainbow.  This picture was taken during a visit to the park in 2009.

Rhododendron Blossoms

(This picture can be enlarged by clicking on it.  Clicking a second time will make it full-sized.)

Betsy and I are confident that Spring has come to stay when the big rhododendron by our deck bursts into bloom.  It has beautiful pink blossoms that are always a welcome sight.

Blatant Iris

(This picture can be enlarged by clicking on it.  Clicking a second time will make it full-sized.)

We have several varieties of iris in our yard, and we enjoy the display they put on before the roses start blooming.  This iris, Blatant, is one of the more colorful varieties we have in the yard.

Towering Prism Tulip

(This picture can be enlarged by clicking on it.  Clicking a second time will make it full-sized.)

We occasionally get false promises of Spring, but when the tulips start to bloom we can be fairly certain that Spring is really here.  We only have a couple Towering Prism Tulips, but they are tall and put on a beautiful display.
