Wednesday, May 11, 2011:  It is spring and flowers are popping up everywhere on the grounds of Gilbert Lodge.  Paula "Shutterbug" Persons was out with her camera to capture these shots.

She likes taking outdoor photos.

Paula sees photo opportunities when Mark doesn't.

Nice colors, Paula.  Note how she managed to keep the background out of focus to direct your attention to the flowers of interest.

Ferns are plentiful at the lodge as well.
