Rexburg Spring

Posted by on Jul 12, 2013 in Blog, Photography, Places | 1 comment

Idaho winters are long and the novelty of snow quickly loses its appeal.  Fortunately, the beauty of Spring here makes up for it.  I took most of these photos the morning of Memorial Day, when the streets of Rexburg were quite and the sidewalks were lined with American flags.  I had some time to kill so I went for a wonderful walk around town photographing flowers and Old Glory.  I’m no gardener, but I can certainly appreciate those who are.  By the time I took these Memorial Day photos the tulips had already gone the way of all the earth, so I’m really glad I snapped a few photos of the tulips outside of my apartment a couple weeks earlier.

Most people would argue that dandelions aren’t flowers, but they’re so cute…
