Other one, thanks for all of the lovely photos you posted.   I do love Winter scenes and Fall, too.   Did some paintings of those seasons.

Haven't found any pictures of our current location yet, but here are some of where we moved from in a suburb of Pittsburgh. Kindof amazing how much I miss that beautiful red leaf maple tree in our front yard. It was only mine for 4 years. My husband grew up in that house. The night time shot is taken from the front porch. I took many different photos from that front porch.

Shel, may I ask what suburb of Pittsburgh?   I grew up in Pittsburgh!   On the Northside, in Brighton Heights....near to Bellevue.   We were fairly close to the old West View Park...a nice little amusement park.   I understand they tore it down.    That amusement park was surrounded by Honeysuckle vines, oh what a heavenly fragrance every time we visited the park.   Lots of good childhood and teen memories for me of Pittsburgh.

the view out of my kitchen door....    Sometimes he comes by and I let him in the house to play for a day or two then he wants to go home

Our last inside cat died a couple of years ago and he doesn't come by any more....    We don't have the cat chow out for him.

I do believe it's a weasel, Deb. I could be wrong, and they are related in a sense. This one's right friendly!

That's cool Deb! My husband grew up in pleasant hills - south of the city. When we visited in April our friends took up to a park called west end Elliot overlook park with an amazing view of the city. I took pics of the beautiful cherry blossoms thereIMG_9832.JPG.3785d81512a984d4fff363128b6c3f39.JPGIMG_9838.JPG.0ce962b3e9d45d8d11597e2df2d03c75.JPGIMG_9792.JPG.421ac6591ea66eab5f68ab37869d5302.JPG

Thanks for responding, Shel!   And also loved the photos!   Did you go to Phipps Flower Conservatory in Pittsburgh?   Sure is a beautiful one....flower displays change each season.   I understand they enlarged Phipps alot.   Alot of good memories from Pittsburgh...even taking a hugh paddlewheel boat up one of the rivers.   Would visit the aviary and zoo alot, too.   Also, the inclines are nice, and a great view from above.

Yes, that would be great!   Last time I visited Pittsburgh was in 1989!   Caring for my elderly mom so won't be traveling anytime soon.  Also, my aunt in Pittsburgh died some years ago.   Have some cousins there but they don't keep in touch.

Is this near Phoenix?   I have an elderly uncle there.   Also, a couple of cousins in the White Mountains.

Wanna here something funny Deb? I grew up in LA. Was born at ucla hospital but spent age 3-10 in the San Fernando valley. My grandparents lived in Santa Monica and my dad worked in Santa Monica so we spent quite a bit of time there as well.
