Around this time of year, I need to remind myself that winter doesn’t last forever. These scenes are from the garden at my mother’s house, planted by its original owner, Wayne de la Rua — Baldwin county’s first Master Gardener. Much of it was destroyed by Hurricane Ivan, but I’m happy that we captured a few pieces of it in photos.

It’s lovely. Though I’m not sure if we could really call it winter.

Thanks. With over 15 inches of snow blanketing the countryside, you made a bright spot in my day.

Springtime is very encouraging as the cold brings many problems to us during winter.
Thanks for bringing on the happiness we all need when forgetting about the cold also.

The guy in Mobile, Alabama is complaining about the winter? Uh-oh.

Ice on the ground for 3 days is definitely historic for south Alabama; never happened before in my lifetime. :)

Hi Matt, I have been quietly stalking your blog because I love the way to take pictures. In particular, I love the way you create your gallery posts. Unfortunately, I use the RYU theme too and I have completely failed to format a gallery post to turn out like this. The pictures just stack up in a row. Can you please please help a friendly stalker? :-)

Hi Emily, sorry it took me so long to reply. Thanks for the kind words! To switch to tiled layouts from the default, head over to Settings → Media in your blog’s dashboard, scroll down to “Image Gallery Carousel,” and select the box next to “Display all your gallery pictures in a cool mosaic.” If you need more help, this Support article should guide the way. Cheers! http://en.support.wordpress.com/images/gallery/
