Update about blogCa

Who knew all this would happen afterwards! Flat Creek in November, 2024. Much changed by the force of the hurricane floods in Sept. 2024. The deck of the bridge is now under that pile of debris.

Redbud at the Library



These are the most vibrant Redbuds I have seen, helped by the dull coloration of the library building.



And another little beauty that popped up next to where my car parks...

Thanks to fellow blogger, who showed me Spanish Bluebells as opposed to English Bluebells HERE.  I think these are the Spanish Bluebells.


Today's quote:

Call out to the whole divine night for what you love. What you stand for. Earn your name. Be kind, and wild, and disciplined, and absolutely generous.

  2. There was a stretch of road near the house we built in MD that always had such a lovely display of redbuds. I tried planting one at the house, unsuccessfully. Here in NH I doubt we will see them - too cold. We are weeks behind you. The forsythia are just blooming as are the daffodils.

    1. Oh you are enjoying the bursts of yellow to take you out of the greys of winter. I love both forsythia and daffodils.

  3. The Redbud is striking, perhaps because it looks very pruned and cared for.

    1. I don't know why one of these trees has a split personality...but yes, now they are getting good care.

    1. I agree...the one on the right does have a big area of space within its two main branches. Strange.
