Hummm… February Spring

February 26, 2021

Today was a day to just enjoy what nice weather the universe sent us. It is far from what would be our normal February weather.

We took the plunge to trek the 7km to the ocean early enough to beat the crowds.

Nice rainbow glitter boots.
Remarkably clear and still beach.
A para sail catching a draft off the sea.
Hummm… wonder how this rose ended up on the beach?
Looking out towards the ocean.
Hummm… something for the bird lovers.

Dutch Snowmen

With the snow came snowmen! These are a few from our neighborhood.

A COVID responsible snowman.
This snowman was at least 6 foot tall!
This happy guy was just hanging out.
This snowman is the best dressed.

Hopefully, these snowmen bring joy to each of you.

Friday Floral

January 15, 2021

Cold, gloomy and a chance this weekend of snow makes for a ho hum sort of walk, until you see these.

These happy daffodils put a smile and sunshine into my gloomy walk.
Bright in the gloom.

Now, inspired, I looked for other signs of brightness in the gardens I passed.

This periwinkle is protected by the rock wall.

The shrubs in this moderate climate provide colorful eye catching berries.

Bright red berries pop color from this garden.
