hydrangea heaven
We took a walk through Tupare Gardens yesterday and it was filled with hydrangeas in so many colors!

blooms around the house
The first two photos are of the old-fashioned rose bushes that, I assume, were planted when the owner first lived here before building the homestead down the drive. I have to say that I am intrigued by them, with their rose hips and tiny blossoms.

ponga fronds
I love to see these fronds in any stage. They make such wonderful patterns from their curled up beginnings to designs against the sky. They are the national emblem of New Zealand.

orange greetings
These pretty blossoms are among a group outside the front door that have been blooming all spring. They always seem happy to see us when we come home.

sugarloaf islands, new plymouth
These islands are called Sugarloaf Islands because Captain Cook thought the bird guano looked like the sugar he put in his tea. They surround an extinct underwater volcano.

This sign is from Pioneer Village. I wish I knew the date for the sign.

Te Rewa Rewa bridge in New Plymouth
This wonderful piece of architecture is part of the Coastal Walkway along the ocean in New Plymouth.
The bridge was placed so that this is the view you get on a sunny day as you come around the last curve toward the bridge. Pretty spectacular, I think!

remains of the tide
I love the marks that the ocean leaves on the sand as the tide goes out. It seems to me that it's a very slow 'Good by'.
