Agreed! 🙃😊

Thank you Jade! 🥰

Great close-up Mel! 😃

Good morning Jade! Coffee and beautiful sunshine - perfect start to the morning! ☀️🤎💛☕️

I argued for this as a teacher too, but was just accused of resisting change. Change without thought is senseless.

Thank you! 😊

Thanks Shantha! A lovely day back to you! 🌱

Good morning Shantha! John Muir, a true advocate for nature, who experienced it down to his core. Nice post! 🌿💚

Hi Jean! Isn’t it wonderful, seeing things start to grow again? 😄 🙃🌱 How are your dahlias coming along?

Hi Pierre! 🤗 I hope your day has started beautifully! 🦋🐦‍⬛🫂

Good morning Mel! Have a stardust kind of day!💫

Good morning Pierre! ☕️😊
Your pleasant company and the warm coffee are appreciated; thank you! I hope you had a happy weekend! Our weather has improved and I’m hoping for some outdoor time this week.
Have a beautiful day! 🪻🌻☀️

Forest Atmosphere in Bluebells Heaven
What a nice spring mood this was.

What a delightful addition to your run, Cyrinne! A sweet conversation. ❤️

PHOTO by Darwis Alwan. Tall, slender trees rise through a dense mist in a quiet forest. Their trunks are dark and speckled, twisting gently as they stretch toward a pale sky veiled in fog. At ground level, vibrant green grasses and broad-leaved plants create a lush underlayer, damp with moisture. The scene feels suspended in stillness, as if time has slowed to a hush beneath the canopy of silent trees.

In the forest, time is irrelevant. Life is measured in cycles, not seconds.

So precious and delicate! 🍃🤍
A beautiful day back to you, Gina!

Thank you Kris! The bad weather has passed now. ☀️😊We’re drying out and people are repairing damage.

Maple flowers, Sunday. Poem by Robert Frost: “Nothing Gold Can Stay”

Good morning everyone!

Celebrate the vivid fresh greens of spring. They’re fleeting; get our and see them if you can.

“Nature’s first green is gold
Her hardest hue to hold
Her early leaf’s a flower
But only so an hour…
Nothing gold can stay.”

I do too! And it’s just beginning here. 🌱

I hope so too. But I’m far away from her now so her fate will remain a mystery.

Thank you, Gina. 💚
I probably need to buy more cloud storage after all the photos I took of magnolias on Sunday.😄

I took a few other photos of this same tree from different distances. I’ll share them with you on other days. A lovely serene spot. 🍃😌

Well, having mountains thrown at you is not exactly what we hoped for. Maybe some of the mountains you’ve climbed or carried today will ultimately be a benefit to the world. You never fully know all the positive ripples you create each day.

Nighty night Jade. Sleep well. 💖

😢

Glad you’re ok. Take the time you need to feel better and we’ll see you then.

Ugh. Same trouble as 4 days ago. 😖😖😖

I hope the problem resolves for you soon. ☹️
