Hi Gals, Just wanted to share a little "Spring" with you! Dave and I went to Gibbs Garden, in Ball Ground, GA last week for their Daffodil Festival! It was amazing and I want to share a couple of photos I took with you to brighten your day!

I just love these pictures of spring!

A little rain can straighten a flower stem. A little love can change a life.

This was a busy turn of the century coal and sand mine.
All the sand was trucked to the Atlas Mason jar factory near Oakland
Where the cool old mason jars were made...there is a tour but it was sold out ..,
Pretty cool place... Gorgeous with lots of history and beautiful hiking trails !:

It is so pretty Tammy, and oh yes I can smell spring! That is neat it is the mine that the sand came from for Mason Jars. I did not know that the factory was in CA. Thank you for sharing a bit of your history with us. I love taking hikes to old mines around Colorado so much history, where be glad when the warm weather comes so maybe we will be up to some small hikes.
Hugs,
Debbie

Tammy, Thanks for sharing those beautiful, green photos :)! I didn't know the history of Mason Jars either, and have a love for them, now more than ever, thanks to you!
It's so much fun to get out and explore, even in your own area, as there is so much to see and do.
Have a great day chickies!

Ruthie and Tammy...Awesome Pictures Girls.

Tammy...I just learned this recently (so now I am so wise you see...LOL) but if you have a picture stored in your
computer and it is turned wrong just right click on it before you upload it and it will give you the choice to turn
it. Then left click and upload it. I was so happy to learn this so people would no longer have to twist their necks off
to look at my pictures. Hope that helps sweet friend. Loved the mason jar info. too.

I JUST LOVE SPRING!!!

Big Hugs Girlies,
Peggy
