Update about blog

The San Juan Mountains near Durango, along Highway 160. Yes the pole is to help plows know where the pavement edge is when it snows. I won’t be driving up there then!

Flowers for you

 Sharing with Floral Friday Fotos

Carol Long makes such swoopy decorations in her flowery pottery

You know how I love poppies...

Thanks to a blogger, who I forgot to note when I saved this photo.


Rainy day at doctors office, but magnolias bloom on!




While at the Pisgah Inn last week, I spied buttercups among the clover! 


Mountain Laurel might have been a bit past its prime.

And so were the Rhododendrons!



Coming back into Black Mountain the day lilies are beginning their sweet single-day lives.


And just a note to hope my blog friends have joy in your lives!

We have nature's beauty to be thankful for

 




The North Carolina Arboretum in Asheville posted these wonderful photos of Mountain Laurel on Facebook last week

Living till he is 100, David Attenborough has given incredible education about the environment to so many!

I'm thinking about how much of my life is awareness of my own participation in my environment...and learning still about how I can help keep the place healthy as well as myself. The symbiotic relationship is the key, I think.

Sharing with Thankful Thursday and Floral Friday Fotos!

Sandhill Cranes and colts in Florida


Our peonies before the rain and their own weight made them lie their heads on the ground.
