I don' t usually plant tulips. But this year, I did some what I thought really pretty ones.

Unfortunately it got very windy, and now cold, and I prolly won't get to enjoy them much.

One of the coolest things I've ever seen at the NYS Fair...

Adding one more because these acrobats were incredible too!

I've got a picture similar to your puzzle gazania. From one of the few hunts I was able to make it to this year. For the ornamental grasses, I've found that if I take a hedge trimmer to them I can cut them down in about 1 minute. Much easier than using a hand clippers.

If they were more cruise-ship friendly in 2011 when I was there, it was probably not much more so. This was looking in the opposite direction from the previous shot -- mostly a cargo port. And only the green roofed building shown here was used for cruise ship passengers. I think the red roofed buildings were warehouses The tents shown above did have a welcoming committee with steel drum band and dancers in carnival costumes. And this guy dancing on stilts

It is a heavy art paper. I didn't realize until we got the magpies home that we have two other pieces by the same artist that we bought at the Camden Art Festival. I believe the artist applies paint (or ink) to a block and then she presses the block to the paper. There were a couple of other pieces of art depicting birds that I really liked, but I got "out bid" on them. They were embroidered with fine silk thread onto cloth.

This is a gate/arbor combo we made years ago out of electrical conduit. Those are curtain finials on top. Today I'm planting another Jackmani clematis on the left side....it needs balance. :0)

An Indian Totem (of sorts) by Peter Toth. This one is in Aberdeen, South Dakota. Every state has (or had) at least one. Carved by Peter from tree trunks, some were not properly cared for and have been destroyed by insects or the elements.

That really is a very cool picture, Nicole. We couldn't see it here because of the clouds. The clouds that left an inch of snow on the ground overnight.

Mine is a cave at Hocking Hills State Park.

Is that Old Man's Cave murraysmom? I went to Hocking Hills a number of times while growing up in Ohio.

Here's another image that's not quite a totem, but that fits for Easter week.
