My favorite mountain

My favorite mountain

It’s International Mountain Day! Okay, this was announced in my planner, but I connected to it and this scene came to mind immediately: We’ve hiked to Lake Isabelle in the Indian Peaks Wilderness our last two visits to Colorado. I’m sorry I don’t know the exact mountain names here on the Continental Divide. They certainly […]

A Holiday Visit in D. C.

A Holiday Visit in D. C.

I live near D. C., but it takes company to get us downtown. Decorations in the public buildings can be delightful this time of year. My favorite stop was the U. S. Botanical Garden & Conservatory.

I like bees!

I like bees!

We’ve had a wild honeybee hive living in our cabin’s fireplace for over ten years. No, they don’t get inside, even before we installed a woodburing stove with a sealed stovepipe to meet the local clean air requirements. They come and go. Last year they swarmed.

Oriental Poppies!

Oriental Poppies!

Did I mention my poppies are in the shade? A week after I’ve arrived in Colorado, most still look like this. It’s taking them forever to bloom–but here is the first. I love it!
