TPThursday Capturing The Four Seasons

The seasons in photos. . .

I hadn’t given seasons  much thought  until Leigh from Hike Bike Travel invited our participation in another blogosphere event; this one sponsored by Booked.net.

At our house we have two seasons, ‘Travel and No Travel’.  It is from that perspective I offer views of the four calendar seasons as we fondly recall from our travels::

Winter

Summer

Autumn

When you capture the memories of the seasons, what do you picture? 

This is my contribution to Travel Photo Thursday created by Nancie at Budget Travelers Sandbox. If this is your first visit to TravelnWrite, stop by again Saturday for Washington Weekend.

  2. I love your version of the two seasons!!! Our house is pretty much the same though I would desperately love for there to be only one season-travel all the time!
    Even though our winter's are very mild , we try to miss this and escape somewhere warmer. Winter in Honolulu looks great!

    1. Our Seattle winters used to be mild - just dreary - but now we have a bit of snow as well. . .Aloha Hawaii!

  3. Being Canadian, I LOVE your winter photo, so much different than what I associate winter with.

    1. Thanks for the invite. I posted this late last night while in DC (the other Washington) and obviously was suffering jet lag - I've corrected the spelling on your name. . .my head was clogged, I guess!

  6. I love your interpretation of seasons, Jackie.
    I've been thinking about that too since there is no distinct season -- it's sunny almost everyday.

    1. I am so envious: 'sunny almost everyday' sounds sooooo good!

  7. Almost missed your winter submission! Hawaii is awesome during the winter and I can't really think of a better place to get warm. Loved your shots!

    1. Maybe I should think of age the same way: Able to travel and Too Old To Travel as well. . .that way I have many travel days ahead.
