We had a mild and rainy day yesterday. A preview of things to come, but now we are back to cold with more snow on its way.

China Aster

We have been in a drought for quite some time, so here are some drops from my watering can on China Asters. They are annuals that come in lovely shades of purples and pinks. They aren’t minis, but did come from the Botanical Interests seed packets. A pleasure when a lot of the garden is beginning to fade.

Wish Granted

Yesterday was my birthday. All I wanted for the day was to be outside, somewhere relaxing, near water, and not crowded. Having a picnic by the dam fulfilled it all.

In the Water

It won’t stop raining and it is so cold. This is me holding my phone over the koi pond. I’ve posted other shots of these fish, but somehow I felt as submerged as they are so I let the reflection of me in my rain gear be.

Rushing Water

The weather has been all over the place this past week from winter snow to summer warmth, but it was fine to be by rushing free water again.

A lovely spot nearby, that is surprisingly hard to get to, but when I do I enjoy it.
