If you have been following the news lately, you might be aware of the dire news out of mainland China, and its most vital city, Shanghai.

Our topic this week for Cee's Fun Foto Challenge is Wood. Knock on wood. The most important wood object around our place is this. This is my 1987 David VanZandt violin. It is as much a work of art as a musical instrument. Its top is made from close-grained Sitka Spruce, and its back is …
We should all now be aware of the fact that the Disney corporation, which used to produce excellent entertainment for children, has decided that its new audience and masters will be the Homosexual and "Transgender" groups.

Once again, we drove up to the Skagit Valley to see the vaunted tulips which were still not blooming the last time we went.

First, a cute cartoon I was sent. Remember, dogs have owners, cats have staff. Next, a video I shot of the resident Owner, better known as Kikyo. I was about to get on my rowing machine for my daily workout, and she let me know she was bored with watching me. Cheers!
Hubby and I took a little spur-of-the-moment trip up to the Skagit late this afternoon, to see if the tulips were out in all their splendor. It was heavily overcast and threatening rain all afternoon. We saw minimal tulips, but we did see some new sights. Like this field of green veggies. And this really …
I'm privileged to have my birthday in April. I love being a Spring Baby, when the garden wakes up from its winter slumber, leaves and buds show up on our trees, and our chorus frogs begin singing in the holding pond across the street from our house. Last year, I planted a little Hydrangea bush …
