Coming second best is close to ideal
ctually, it is totally ideal when winning means you have to go on to the next heats in the competition, and you only entered on a whim and don’t have time (or inclination) to compete seriously.

Cobblers

Since I first learned about Ireland, when I think of it, I see that 3rd picture. I know this is Wales, not Ireland, but still…;-)
Even after all these years, I still find it slightly fascinating that someplace that feels as exotic as Wales has the same flowers that I have in my backyard (although mine bloomed about a month ago.) You have Texas flowers!!! 😉
Are those snowdrops in the sixth picture?
Aren’t they beautiful?
