Every Day is a Gift!
I love seeing this flag beside U. S. Highway 80 when I travel between Savannah and Tybee Island, Georgia. The flag was placed there by a friend of mine on September 11, 2001. He and others have been maintaining it ever since.

Sylvia asks us to show what spring means to us.
To me, spring doesn’t begin on a specific date on the calendar. For me, it is spring in Coastal Georgia when the azaleas and Dogwoods are blooming, when there is new growth in the garden, and when the St. Patrick’s Day celebrations begin in Savannah and Tybee Island.
To me, spring also means working in the garden beds and watching birds at the bird feeder.
Sometimes we like to travel in the spring. The next images show some of my favorite spring blooms from our travels.
Many thanks to for Sylvia for this challenge Lens-Artists Challenge #241 – Spring
Many thanks to John for this challenge and for mentioning my WanderingDawgs blog in his post. He asks: “For this week’s challenge, I want you to think of your favorite type or style of photography as the road you’ve chosen to take most often.”
I enjoy many types of photography but I my favorite is nature photography.

Tina’s challenge is Finding Peace.
I find peace in nature – a beautiful morning sky, bird watching, spring flowers, walking in the woods, seeing wildlife in their natural habitat, or the beach.

Ann-Christine’s challenge is Alone Time. She tells us ”Alone time means time spent by an individual or a couple apart from others. It is often used to ground oneself, or to do something creative.” She asks us to share our thoughts and share what we use our alone time for.
I treasure my alone time. Sometimes I just want a quiet place to sit and do nothing. Other times I like to read or grab my camera to find something to photograph. Working in my garden or working on my blog posts are other ways I spend alone time. When we are at home I often enjoy some alone time in the rope swing shown in the above image.
Traveling to a remote national or state park is a great way to enjoy some time alone. Being far away from civilization allows me to enjoy the nature around me.
Closer to home, we can take a boat ride to one of Georgia’s deserted barrier islands and be the only people there.
Many thanks to Ann-Christine for her challenge Lens-Artists Challenge #238 – Alone Time
