Hi Everyone!!!
Today, March 12th, is my sweet friend Helen's (BluEcho) Birthday!!!!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY HELEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I sure hope you've been having a really terrific day!!!!!!!!!!
I wanted to send a really nice birthday greeting to you and thought of one of my favorite VERY spring pictures!!!
This was taken in Washington, D.C., in the spring when the cherry blossoms were blooming like crazy! Actually, they bloom more like the stark raving lunatics of the flowering tree world!!! One of the "must see" events that everyone should experience at least once is the cherry trees in bloom in Washington! They are everywhere and to use the word "gorgeous" to describe them just shows the limitations of the English language!!!
Helen lives in St. Louis, Missouri, and has seen a lot more than her share of winter this year! If you'll recall, they had a "bit" of an ice storm!!!!!! YIKES!!!
So I figured that maybe she'd enjoy a picture of our coming spring!! And perhaps a lot of folks that have seen plenty of winter might enjoy it, too!!!
Is you take a look at Helen's gallery:
BluEcho Gallery
You will find that she does a whole lot of different things, but in particular, she does some really incredible character work!!
And if you look at her latest post:
Predators from Hell
You will find a very strong warning about some of the financial predators that we all should be concerned about!!!
I hope that gets resolved quickly - and maybe my little bright and sunny picture of springtime beauty might help lighten the emotional load a little!!!!
I've known Helen almost since I first arrived at Renderosity. She's been a sweet and warm friend to me and to everyone!!!!! She's a very special lady that makes Renderosity a better place by her being here!!!!!
Please take a moment and wish her the very best on this special day for her!!!!!!!!!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY HELEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Love Ya Bunches!!!!!!!!!!

Happy belated birthday Helen. Beautiful shot. Certainly that's a must see. So keep sending photos because I don't think I'll visit Washington any time soon! 8-)

Happy Birthday Helen! What a stunning photo of Washington at it's finest! I'm doing these out of order, so I know you are heading to another superb cherry blossum site. Send us some photos from the Tokyo blossoms if they are in bloom!
