How to cure the blahs....

One of the ways that works for me to banish the blahs 

is to go outside and take photos of the garden. 

Or dig in the garden. Or do some weeding. 

Or just be OUTSIDE because it's warm enough to do so.... finally! 
We had sunshine so must take advantage, it can be elusive here.

Wild strawberries! We're going to have a bumper crop this year. 

Poppy  growing on steps (ignore the weeds, I'll get to them soon!)

And since I'm out in the garden, I'm not at my desk...

 so this is the workspace I'll show today. 

The garden bench. :)

P.S. The spray bottle has a mix of ammonia and water which works to, um, dispatch of slugs that are in the veggie garden. The best time to go out is just as it's getting dark as they come out of hiding. ;)

Happy WOYWW everyone!

Weekday Walk

This week we had a mini adventure with my son, mapping out the way to his Greenhouse Gardening class. My artists eye found lovely treasures along the way. 

White mushrooms/toadstools in the grass behind the bus stop shelter where we changed buses. I think the faeries were hiding.

Other than the watermark, this is SOOC 

Walking home through the neighborhoods as we walked back from the greenhouse, we saw a gorgeous Pacific Dogwood, a native tree of our area. Isn't it beautiful?

And as we walked the final stretch toward home, we noticed some graffiti on a fence. I kind of reminded me of pacman... with an attitude. :)




I'm sharing today with Cheryl at mysticmissive for Writing on the Wall, Straight Out of the Camera  and Macro Monday.
