Oh my… it’s really SPRING!! YAAAY for everything VERNAL!!! Everyone is already making all their summer plans, even! And “why not?” I say!! Life is short – let’s get ready!
So, instead of waiting until after the summer and asking what you did, I’d love to hear what you’ve got planned for your summer. Vacation or not, summer is the active season, for the most part… the one where we get to do all the outdoor stuff. Always remember, though, there are some who prefer the indoors to the outdoors. Summer, winter matters not. I’m one of each, balanced, I hope. But I know some folks who are over the top one way or the other. So I try not to judge. (You did WHAT last night!?!!?)
So… I think I’m just looking forward to opening all the windows and getting that fresh air circulating. I can smell the spring/summer scents. And maybe the birds will move out of my air conditioners!
Well, then… enough silly talk… let’s get on with the fractals, shall we….?
KokopelliToo is one of my attempts for a wrapped canvas print for my sister’s freshly painted living room wall. The teal background is a dealbreaker for her and it took me a wile to get comfy using it. I’ve made several since this, but this is one of my faves. I think we may have a winner with one of my latest, so we’ll have to see.
Wishing you all a happy weekend, and a happy upcoming pre-Easter week. Wouldn’t it be cool if we ALL got some really divine weather for a while? Let’s work on that…
Good luck on selecting a favorite this week – I’m not sure I could name just one out of this bunch! Multiple faves are accepted! We have a mix again this week of Apo and Fractal Explorer.
love and hugs from all of us Buddhakats…

Great tunes, and I can’t pick a favorite this week . It’s an immensely satisfying set.
I’m also looking forward to opening the windows and having a nap on a warm spring afternoon.
there ya go… what’s better than takin’ it easy and kickin’ back!?!?!?
thanks for checking in, EG… I know – they are too hard to pick a favorite from!! They’re all winners, right!?!?
My plan for the summer is to continue with working on my Music Business and Technology certification.
Oh, the serious type, eh? Tell me more (if you want)!
🙂
Since you requested. 🙂
I actually want to be a music producer/engineer, as well as (hopefully) opening a publishing company. Hopefully I can reach that goal.
Skylit is gorgeous (and cooling – really humid here – waiting for cooler front)
Lavender simply won’t hold still.
NIce music for Friday!
I HATE humidity! Except when it’s a precursor to a down and dirty thunderstorm that rumbles in and clears the air, washes the skies and gets everybody back to liking the warm weather again! I’m glad you caught that with Lavendar – it’s what I was going for!
🙂
My first choice is KOKOPELLI TOO, then SKYLIT, then SUMMERTIME
Not easy at all.
This summer I hope to get in some reading in a major way; haven’t had time lately.
Good choices all, my friend!! That sounds delicious, taking a good book (or the kindle with LOTS of books) to the lake or even just out and about, have a nice large iced coffee and read for hours! It’s been so long since I’ve done that, I may have forgotten how!
🙂
Number 2 is awesome! I want to move to a blue state this summer! Looking for a job to make that happen!
Thanks, Rumpy… Shadowfan is kinda special to me, so I’m glad you like it!
A blue state as in politics blue? I think there are some pretty good choices like the west coast, the northeast and Hawaii off the top of my head. Are you in FL now? Can’t remember – hard to keep everybody straight!
Good luck on the job search and the move – hope you’ll land exactly what you want exactly when you need to!!
🙂
Thanks! I trust the Universe will do its part as long as I’m doing mine.
Well, that’s definitely the attitude I’d be wearing! I believe that too – go after what you want and the universe will just fall into place around you and your goal! (Not that we always realize it!)
🙂
I have to go with Kokopeli Too, though all are good this episode… and this summer, come hell or high water, I’m going to Ireland… maybe spring, maybe summer, but, I’m going… 😆 That’s the plan, anyway….
Wow, Ned, that sounds great!?!?! Lookin’ for a little of your blarney roots? I surely hope you can make it! And have some fine tales to tell when you get back!!
Thanks for the vote!!
🙂
I’m looking forward to finding blarney a LOT…. and the plan is to tell the tales here on the blog, as I’m traveling across the land, surrounded by legends, fairies, and beauty unlimited…. 😆 Can’t wait!
Kokopeli and on the shoulders of giants! Can’t pick just one 🙂 BTW we are in the middle of blizzard conditions. We can only dream of spring! Happy days 😉
Thanks, Karo… both are faves of mine as well… oh my – blizzard conditions!!! Somehow (I have no idea why) I never pictured blizzards in the UK. I guess you get the worst of it too, eh?
Stay warm – what does Austin think of the snow again? Oh yeah – not for me!!! He should shovel the stuff!!
🙂
Bugger. My comment to this was during one of the many outages I have had this week.
Originally…and still… I like Skylit. I love the tessellation of Lavender Sachet and the clubs in Summertime, but the blues and symmetry get me. xxx
I am past ready for real spring. It is vile and rainy here today. We are doing a lot of playing fetch today, though. I have travel in mind this summer, including being in your neck of the woods. 😉
And I love “Let Her Cry”. xxx
OK, I’ll try to plan for good weather during the Duluth “Walk” – no promises though! And there could be a major difference between Minneapolis and Duluth! That’s a cold wind blowing in off Lake Michigan!
I have always loved Let Her Cry – sorry H and the BF weren’t more popular! Btw – is it on your playlist?
🙂
I think it is on one of my personal ones. Do you want it on the Reminds Me of Red list?
Sure… here’s the link so you don’t have to look it up… http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=1aVHLL5egRY …
or should/can I add it? Which account is it under?
🙂
I do not think you can, but I am on YT now tweeting trailers. I will grab it ❤
My favorite one is SKYLIT. It may be spring, but the weather doesn’t seem to know it yet! I hope it starts to warm up this week.
Yup… you and me, Binky!! we’ve been hanging in the 30’s F dayside, at or just below freezing for nighttime… don’t worry – it WILL get here (and there)!!!
🙂
I don’t know diddley about fractals. They are all pretty.
As for balanced…that is something I have never been accused of being.
I plan to do pretty much what I have been doing this winter only I will do a lot of it outside. Summer is also better for selling my jewelry because there are more markets. I do well at festivals and outdooor markets.
it’s great that you enjoy the interaction of those venues, Bo… especially of the stall/booth fee isn’t outrageous! Glad to see you today!
🙂
Your FRACTALS are always so
Fractually delicious BuddhaKat 🙂 🙂 xxx
Mmmmmm… that’s a great comment, Gray… hope your snow is on the way out soon!!!
🙂
summertime is grand–lavender hypnotic–kokopelli evocative, tribal iconic–fan simpler–skylit cool, elegant–each so representative of a topic, special. shoulders is so crowded, as are social giants, the magic of shadowfan is its quietly brilliant presence, simple yet riveting.
Hi Nadine… nice to see you!!! That’s is perhaps the most poetic comment ever! It’s lovely… and after reading some of your stuff, I’m not surprised – you are truly a weaver of the magical nature of words! So glad you stopped in!!
🙂
Pretty fractals for spring!! 🙂
Hi Christy and thanks for the flavor of spring brought back into the room!!! Lovely to see you!!
🙂
Late to the Friday gathering, but wow … tough choices. Shadowfan first caught me eye … and I can see Kokopelli … but Summertime may be my winner. Nice tunes too.
no worries, Frank… you’re in plenty of time to still catch the new one for today too… see – didn’t I say – one fave is hard to do in this group! Thanks for stopping by!
🙂
I like the pressure of picking one fav!
You don’t know how happy that makes me, to hear that, Frank!!! So THANKS!!!
🙂
Hopefully on my way soon to catch up with this Friday.
