Easter Sunday Photos of Paris
The light, alas, wouldn’t quite cooperate with me, and it was much colder out than I expected. I didn’t have a sweater with me, so I didn’t stay out long enough to catch everyone coming out of church in their Easter best. But as I promised MarciN, here are flowers, gardens, springtime, and Easter treats from my neighborhood in Paris. Taken just a few minutes ago.
Happy Easter to one and all!
What does your neighborhood look like today?

Beautiful! The lizard knew it was a Kodak moment!
Happy Easter Birthday, Percival (from another Easter birthday person)! Here it Everett, Washington it was 61 and partly cloudy when I walked to the nearby convenience store to get the Sunday paper (no subscription for me). Beautiful pictures of Paris, Claire. Thank you.
Oh, and I also had charoset for breakfast this morning. Yummmmmm.
Happy birthday, RushBabe.
Now that’s the downside of have Pesach away from home! No doggy bags!
Thx, These kids are much more beautiful than flowers in Paris windows.
Was thinking exactly the same thing – especially after the third photo of them.
Thanks for a piece of Paris this morning, Claire
MBeautiful photos. But without the connection to Christ, our Saviour, it all seems a bit empty. God Bless
This thread has made me smile all day.
I am thinking I will return the favor, and around the Fourth of July, I shall get pictures of Cape Cod’s beautiful blue mophead hydrangeas:
Up in Sandwich, in the Heritage Museums and Gardens, the Cape Cod Hydrangea Society maintains the North American Hydrangea Test Garden, which opened officially in 2016:
It was a lovely day.
I felt it was unwise to take pictures of the three heavily-armed soldiers on duty outside the Easter service in the 16th.
It’s so, so, so good.
The soldiers are camera-shy. I’ve tried. You have to be discreet about it.
Thank you for sharing this @claire .
I hope you had an enjoyable Passover with your family and friends.
That’s stunning! I remember a house in Chatham whose long walkway to front door was lines with blue hydrangeas.
Sure beats brooding over Erdogan, doesn’t it? If only there were no such thing as “Monday”.
We had a beautiful day in New York, though unusually warm. I didn’t take pictures though. I was able to play catch with my son who is seven years old. He’s just starting to get the hang of catching with a baseball glove.
Thank you Claire. Happy Passover and Easter to all.
By the way, this was one of the rare confluences where Eastern Orthodox Easter, western Christian Easter, and Passover all came together on the calendar.
Finally got a picture to load:
Pikes Peak as viewed from my house, on Easter Sunday.
I used to live in Parker, CO in the Pinery and could see the whole front range. I never tired of that view. Nice photo, Dean.
Now that y’all have had a chance to marvel, I can tell the secret.
the only place you can see the Peak from my property is the upstairs bathroom window. I took off the screen so the picture would be better.
