A cool Spring means...

 ...beautiful flowers last longer!

This is just funny - Happy Monday!

 

A springtime walk around the lake

 

After days of rain in my Corner of the Globe...

 

 

...the sun finally peeks out

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

             LOOKING FORWARD TO 2021

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

Construction continues in my Corner

Townhomes are taking shape in the lot next to my home

Eeek... summer storm!

Not for Hummingbirds Only...

Bumblebees also enjoy a sip of sweet water 

Reflections...

...and tranquility 

Covid - Stay - at - Home

...an opportunity to put together puzzles!

Slouching towards mid-June

Gladiolus finally blooming!

Throwback Thursday

Remembering our Gypsy - she was one Cool Cat!

 

HAPPY EASTER!

...the strangest Easter I have ever seen and I've been around for a while. 

The Covid-19 virus is hitting every part of the world, and yet here, in my Corner of the Globe, we are well. Although my elderly Aunt passed away, and we could not be with her for her final moments, seven of us [nieces and nephews] gathered at her graveside to give her the best farewell we could in these times. We maintained the 6-foot-distance rule and are otherwise engaging in sensible social distancing practices.

Staying at home is no punishment to me - I love being here. So much goes on at a micro-level that there are no dull moments in my life. Others are having to follow suit now, and they seem to be making the most of the situation, I am glad to report.

So today is Easter. And here is a photo of some delightful Easter Chicks that were lovingly knitted for a certain grandson and left on his doorstep - 

May this ol' world be as brave in this crisis as other generations have been in the challenges they faced. Love to all, and Happy Easter!
