No Frogs Today by taffy

No Frogs Today

Thank you all for your positive comments (and favs) for my recent frogs. There will be more, but I took a little break to play ETSOOI with some wave petunias, literally waving in the wind, then processed using Topaz Impressions.
For those who have followed me since 'the great Chicago fire of 2014," we will leave Beaver Island tomorrow for a week in Chicago to take over (after over a year, at long last) our condo!!! The final walkthrough with the departing (yay!) renters who stayed til the last possible legal minute is on Monday and then at 8:30 Tuesday morning, renovation of flooring, kitchen, and powder room begin. If all goes well, in about 7 weeks, this will be the last phase since the fire, the rebuilding, the house sale, the condo purchase, and the year "when the renters would not move out." We move our stuff from storage into our place if all goes well sometime at the end of September, and will not move again if we can avoid it!
So, probably will not be too active for the week, til we return to the island next weekend. Wishing everyone a good week!
Beautiful petunias! And what a saga...so glad you have reached the happy ending!

Shame about the absence of frogs, but these bright colourful petunias do brighten up the day. Blowing a gale here today.

All the best for the final move! My best pal had renters who wouldn't leave and who stole all the internal doors when they did go! Crazy. Wishing you good things all the way.

Some lovely blends - I particularly like the left side of the finished picture, but it is all pretty and dreamy. Pleased to hear about your imminent move. What a long process it has been for you. Hope everything goes smoothly in every way.

I'm so glad that those renters are finally moving out! Yay, you can begin to move on and make the condo your own. Beautiful flowers btw.

About time. I'd be having a really hard time being polite to them I'm afraid. Fun painterly effect here

Beautiful bright colored petunias, but not at all washed out. Love your processing.

Lovely shot

A lovely shot, but (better yet) the celebration of the irritating "stay until the last minute" tenants. Begone, before someone drops a house on you! :)
