Holy Wheepers

Wow, what a busy day! Last night I had to go back in to work to do staff meeting, so I couldn't keep up with all your postings. I didn't leave to come home until 1am. As soon as I returned home and came in the puppies heard me, and of course they got all excited and had to go outside. Tried to hurry them along, but as normal they had their own agenda, LOL. Went to bed at 2am, got up at 6am, tried to catch uip on some posting then but had to leave by 7am to get to my meeting. Got to work and sat through an 8 hour meeting, then drove home to go to physical therapy by 5pm. I got back at 6:15pm, and since my wife was not home, the puppies went crazy again, and had to go out. I came back in, grabbed supper, sat down and caught up on all the postings. WOW was I behind. Now I am caught up, almost. I grabbed this photo on the way home, a drive by. (Terry, pretend you didn't read that) I love how the wheeping willows are coming alive, and these two beauties sit along the edge of a pond. Now all I got to do is unwind, go to bed, and start all over in the morning. By the way, therapy is going great. Second visit, and I am pleased to say I already have a lot of my range of motion back, and now I can begin strengthening next week. Life is good.
Wonderful drive by capture. You have a bit of motion capture in there. Glad to hear your therapy is going well. You need to slow down Rick. What a crazy schedule!

These trees are beautiful!
I like willows too, they remind me of where my Grandma used to live in the country.
I know how you feel when you can't catch up with the postings.
We all understand.
Life still has to go on around 365 :)
I look forward to logging on every day though :)

Gorgeous photo! I love the willows. Your past couple of days are making me tired, just reading about it. I hope you can get some rest.
April 14th, 2011  
This is beautiful. Spring in PA is beautiful ... even if it smells like poop. Lol.
April 14th, 2011  
Gorgeous photo
April 14th, 2011  
Like the bit of motion, you need to slow down.
April 14th, 2011  
I am exhausted Rick from your day - really an 8 hour meeting! Nice that you keep 365 always on your mind. Great drive by - love the trees in focus and the way the fence and trees above show the movement. Keep up the improvement with your hand
April 14th, 2011

April 14th, 2011

sounds like a full busy day/nite, rick..... lovely shot....
April 14th, 2011  
Hi Rick! Yes we do have more trees on our block than the average house block.
About 15 in all ranging from 20ft up.
Not all are deciduous thank goodness :)
April 14th, 2011  
Nice drive-by, Rick! The motion frames the pic, along with the bit of vignette.
April 14th, 2011  
I think its a great shot! I have a few drive by shots in my project, too. :)
April 14th, 2011  
Nice drive by shot!! You sound busy! Hope things calm down for you!
April 14th, 2011  
love how their color makes them stand out so!! Nice drive-by!!
April 14th, 2011  
Awesome shot, Rick!! Everything's perfect!
April 14th, 2011  
What a cool shot! I often try to capture these trees but the color isn't the same. This is beautiful! I'm so glad to hear your hand is coming along fine! Worth the temporary pain, I'll bet.
April 14th, 2011  
Hey, and you really don't have to comment on ALL my photos if that will save you time....only the ones you like :)
April 14th, 2011  
I love the way weeping willow look but I would not like to have one around my house, I think they are kind of a messy tree. Terrific photo!
April 14th, 2011  
Wonderful drive-by shot! The things we do!! Hahaha! :0) Its Beautiful!
And from one fellow injured, to another, slow down!! Had to remind myself of that today, too. ;0)
April 14th, 2011  
I don't really know how you did it, but I am glad you did. Is your wife doing the project too? If yes, post her link please.
Good to know your therapy is going well, and I am sure will you'll be fine pretty soon.
April 14th, 2011  
Beautiful capture Rick!! So glad to hear your therapy is going great!! Keep up the great work!!
April 14th, 2011  
Wow, you sound way too busy. I like the photo.
April 14th, 2011

April 14th, 2011  
They look like fountains. Cool shot.
April 14th, 2011  
Looks great framed out by the blur!
April 14th, 2011  
My goodness, I'm tired just thinking about your day Rick! you need to slow down a little! Great pic, I love willows too,remind me of my childhood swinging into the river.
April 14th, 2011  
@alecio Alecio, no my Wife is not doing the project. she always jokes that she doesn't have a creative bone in her body. She just enjoys looking at the photos.
April 14th, 2011  
Wonderful framing!

April 14th, 2011  
I had to take a nap after I read your post. (o:
April 14th, 2011  
Great shot for a driveby. I love the hint of motion in it. :)
April 14th, 2011  
Gorgeous photo--I love these trees. Sounds like you had a busy day! Glad to know therapy is going well too (:
April 14th, 2011  
Those streets are stunning!!!!
April 14th, 2011  
This is so beautiful--weepers are one of my favorites. Take it easy dude--you'll trade the bad hand for a bad heart.
April 14th, 2011  
beautiful trees , love the colour of the new leaves wow it sounds like you are having a hectic time , glad your thumb is going on ok. btw thank you for all your nice comments, I am just trying to catch up
April 14th, 2011  
Happy to her you are doing well with your therapy..now to this busy life of yours...try to take some time for yourself and unwind. the picture is super..love those weepy ones and the color contrast in this picture is wonderful.
April 14th, 2011  
Those are such beautiful trees. I see a few trees around here with those drooping branches and leaves like that, but haven't been sure what they were. Weeping Willows or something... They'd make a great secret fortress for a child's game.
April 15th, 2011  
I absolutely adore weeping willows! They are such fabulous trees! I am so happy that spring is here!
April 15th, 2011  
Nice drive by. Brings back memories of the many hours I spent climbing and spending time in my girlfriends willow tree. Sadly it was uprooted in a storm.
April 15th, 2011  
I love weeping willows and haven't seen one since I left New York state in 1981 at the age of 18. My grandmother had a giant one in her backyard whose roots broke right through the foundation of their house. I thought about a drive by photo yesterday too! Your day sounds a bit like mine, but an 8 hour meeting sounds mind numbing. Glad the therapy is going so well.
April 15th, 2011  
Weeping willows are so pretty! Glad you caught this shot!
April 15th, 2011  
Love the framing, Rick!
April 15th, 2011  
Love this shot.
April 16th, 2011  
Good photo for a drive-by! We both took photos of these trees on the same day...great minds think alike, but yours are much greener than ours.
April 16th, 2011  
What a brilliant composition, love this shot!
April 16th, 2011  
Awesome shot, Rick!! Sounds like it was a busy day.
April 17th, 2011  
Gorgeous shot of the Willow trees, they are really lovely in the spring when they begin to leaf out! Sounds like you're running yourself into the ground Rick....you need a vacation! Glad to hear your therapy is going so well.
April 18th, 2011  
Nice to see the soft young leaves on this weeping willows. Lovely shot. thanks for all the views & comments on my photos over last week when I barely had time to do the same - hopefully more time to do this now.
April 18th, 2011
