gardens, woodpiles, rain

Happy and exhausted from gardening
‘Twas 34C (93F) yesterday
He cleaned the woodpile
Textures intrigued the artist

Wonderful scent of rain in summer
Gentle and warm, first in two weeks
Remembering childhood summers
Standing in the rain in a bathing suit

found art (1)

a magical find in our backyard, under the magnolia tree…

looking through the scanner lens, closer

and closer, enthralled by the delicate weaving

like that of the finest master weavers…
beach art

still too busy for words
so, an offering
another photo from my collection
this earth

Another one from a favourite place…
If you are curious about where this photograph was taken, see the comments in the previous post.
still

I’m still feeling tired and under the weather.
It’s a glorious sunny day at last and the garden is beckoning.
I need to repot the tomato seedlings, still so pitifully small.
I must start hardening the geraniums and other plants for their move outdoors.
Lots to do, so I hope the sun gives me energy.
a photo

Still here, but too busy, then too tired to write…
but here’s a photo taken on a favourite island…
stones or bones?



Looking through some of my old photos, I was again struck by these interesting rocks on the Saanich peninsula on southern Vancouver Island, taken in the summer of 2005. They make me think of weathered old bones of some prehistoric creature.
