a piece of paradise on a cloudy, somewhat threatening Saturday |
walking through a field of cyclamens as we foraged for wild asparagus |
some ominous skies on Saturday |
olive trees when the weather cleared a bit |
our harvest of wild asparagus |
a lone tulip we had planted many years ago, as Elizabeth reminded us |
such pretty wild flowers everywhere |
lovely lilacs |
fruit trees in bloom |
bumble bee on the apple tree, nature at work |
incredible colors on the blossoms- picture perfect |
beautiful day Sunday |
the sky was incredibly blue at times |
field of periwinkles |
they covered a huge part of the hillside |
apple tree in bloom |
lots of hard weekend work |
perfect planting |
perfect pasta sauce |
You're the fastest blogger in Rome! Perfect weekend, thanks for providing the vittles!
ReplyDeleteJane,
ReplyDeleteYou have an incredible ability to provide photos that capture the feel of each trip. Whether the feeling I get from looking is the same as yours, I do not know. But the vistas and close ups and mid-range photos from this trip create a sense of a spectacularly lovely, peaceful weekend in a glorious, country spring setting.
The dark shadow of the cloud in the mid-ground of "a beautiful day Sunday", following the pink buds, is great -- indirectly showing how bright the day is.
Thanks again for having us along.
Fred
