Cycle Sights – Don’t Just Ditch Me

After working for 43+ years (38 years 7 months with my last company), I finally got that promotion I waited my entire career for……retirement. I have been exploring this new career for the past 3+ years and while it is not always exciting, the chance to do what I want for myself and my family instead of what my company wanted me to do has been rewarding. While I still miss the social aspect of working with a team of great people, I have managed to keep in touch with many from my former team and I have many friends and family members who now fulfill this part of my life. Now that my Patty has retired, we are able to spend more time in pursuits and with people who are near and dear to us. I enjoy photography, gardening, working with my hands, walking, cycling, skiing, travelling, reading and creating special photo and video productions obtained in my first pastime. I may not become wealthy in any of these pursuits, but I already feel I am rich in life experiences far beyond any expectation. View all posts by kagould17
Dandelions are some of the first flowers to appear in Ireland once the harsh winter is over. It’s going to be a very long time until we gonna see any flowers for now. Thanks for sharing and I hope all is well 😊 Aiva

I am not sure this is even a dandelion. They grow up to 3 feet tall along the roadsides and appear quite different than your garden variety dandelion. All is well and Jasper is beautiful. Thanks for reading Aiva. Allan

Then it must be the Common Catsear! Either way, my grandmother used to make honey from dandelions; she was such a crafty lady. I was always amazed by her abilities to use nature as her go-to resources. Have a good day 😀 Aiva

Thanks. We had been seeing these flowers since July, but never stopped for a photo, then one day when we came along, they had mowed them all down. So the next time I saw one, I took that photo. It was perfect indeed. Thanks for reading and commenting. Allan

Dandelions are pretty. You can eat them, too. 🙂

That would seem a fitting punishment for invading your lawn. Some folks even make wine from them. Thanks for reading Lynette. Allan
