April showers have missed us so far...

but the skies are dreary...
and gray...
columbine is coming up every where...
it will bring the humming birds...
lilies and columbine...
it's growing up around the rocks...
this in on the list for tomorrow...
and these are going to get painted as soon as it's warm enough...
you can see all the new buds trying to come out...
Mr Wiggles thinks he's a bird watching...
there were 2 cardinals on the fence until he showed up...
so many things are waking up...
I think I will clear coat this...
I like where it is...
it is dark enough the flash would go off part of the time...
but we have our first dandelion...
only one...
potato soup and ham and cheese sandwiches for supper tonight...
it's 51 here with wind...
so it's a cool  and damp 51...

There's something fishy about April Fool's Day...

vintage french postcards...
they appear to have one thing in common...
fish...
pink fish generally...
the images are just too cute...
and I have no clue what they say...
but they are so colorful...
love this one...
and there is a series with rotten pear heads...
at least that's what they look like to me...
and they also have fish...
whimsy postcards...
and then there are others...
probably printed here long ago...
her head is a little too big...
and this one...
maybe the first scratch off...
and a black and white with another fish...
I have a thing for April Fool's Day...
my son was born on this day...
and my grandpa...
big joke in my family on how many fools are in the family tree...
have a great day and beware of pranksters...
but remember...
officially you have to do your pranks before noon!
Happy Pink Saturday!
