Behind the Scenes

Song - Unchained Melody cover by Austin Brown

 

 

Just when you think there is nothing going on because it is winter......just take a walk outside.


 
 
 Here is some happiness in my garden just yesterday....
 


 
 
 A white camellia just outside my office window
 
 

 
 
 The rosemary is full of blooms and bees
 
 

 
 
 
 The hellebore is getting ready to bloom.  I just love this winter plant!
 

 
 
 My dogwood buds are getting plump
 
 

 
 
 Heard this plane and caught it as it flew past the moon
 
 

 
 
 My narcissus are ready to pop!
 
 
 

 
 
 
 I have had a plethora of lemons and limes this year
 


 
 Alyssum flowers have reseeded everywhere
 
 
 
 

 
 
 A lovely begonia that I got from my mother
 
 
 

 
 
 
 I planted several six packs of pansy's in the front yard but as you can see the deer love them!
 
 

 
 
 
 I have two urns of salvia that usually bloom late summer and through fall
 
 

 
 
 
By our front porch we have a Strawberry Madrone tree and I love how the bark peels off each year
 

 
 
 Here are her flowers....
 
 
 
 
 
 Daphne should be in full bloom and scent in a few days.  
Another winter favorite!
 
 
 

 
 
 
 
 Some old primroses are popping though the garden leaf clutter
 


 
 
 This is an azalea that a friend bought for me when my father passed five years ago.
It blooms year round.
It is amazing!
 
 
 

A little snowdrop pushing her way though the earth



Midlife: when the Universe grabs your shoulders and tells you “I’m not f-ing around, use the gifts you were given.”
