I hope you had a good day on Earth
Day on Tuesday. As I write this, it’s at the end of Earth Day, and I’m a bit
disappointed that I spent most of the day inside, helping to lay out the newspaper
for the week.
But Tuesday evening, as Larry and
I relaxed with a late supper in front of the television, we found a documentary
on PBS that fit in well with Earth Day.
It was an American Masters show called A Fierce Green Fire, a documentary
about the history of the environmental movement worldwide. It was fascinating and
inspiring. If you’d like to learn more about it, click HERE.
I’m sharing photos today of the
dogwoods in our backyard. I took these photos earlier this month when the
blooms were a bit greener than they are now.
The dogwood tree is the state tree
of Virginia, and I enjoy the blooms each spring.
Did you do anything to celebrate
Earth Day?
Lovely photos, Tina!
ReplyDeleteWow! That first pic--lovely! I didn't do anything for Earth Day. I'm sick right now, but I don't think I would have done anything for Earth Day anyway.
ReplyDeleteThe dogwoods have been gorgeous this year, don't you think?!
ReplyDeletei love dogwoods...we did a little work in the garden.
ReplyDeleteDogwoods...one of my favorite spring blooms!
ReplyDeletejust beautiful blossoms!
ReplyDeletei gathered and hauled a truck load of firewood and stowed it in the shed. it'll help heat me next winter. :)
Blooms like this would make anybody feel better.
ReplyDeleteThey are so pretty! Nothing is blooming here yet.
ReplyDeleteMy dogwoods are awake, but no blooms yet!! Beautiful images today Tina!!
ReplyDeleteI watched that last night. Very thought-provoking and well done! Your dogwood images dazzle!
ReplyDeleteJust noticed our dogwood blooming today......love your pictures!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed Earth Day by sitting outside and soaking up the sun shinning on this great earth of ours!! Lucky you with the dogwoods, they don't grow here, I think it must get too cold.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous blooms. I've been a fan of the dogwood since seeing them in Portland a few years ago. I wish they could thrive in our climate.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos, Tina. I took a walk on Earth Day and try to do the same every day. Love watching the valley grow green!
ReplyDeleteNice! I have a pink dogwood that is spectacular about every third year. This is one of those years; I love it!
