Mostly the Hosta Garden, peonies finishing, foxgloves blooming, shells and glass from the latest beach walk, and MT Baker., kids playground.

               MT Baker in distance a white cone of ice. Volcano. 

It’s a stratovolcano like St. Helen’s, also in WA along with Adams, Rainier etc. 

Active volcanoes. From the ferry it’s possible to see two at once. Of course flying in it’s possible to see all 5 ! 

The volcanoes are amazing. Rainier was much taller before the last eruption. 

Rose first bloom on this scented one. 

                      Peonies still blooming but on their way out. Summer is coming in although in this area July is sunny. And August. Not June. Basically we are an overcast drizzly environment. It’s temperate as a result and green and beautiful. 

                      Below foxglove. Used to make digitalis a heart treatment a poisonous flower. They grow wild here as well. 

                         Hydrangeas 

                       Hostas 

                     Playground equipment. A boat. 

    

 

Home sweet home.

It's been quite mild so far.
Only one freeze.

The beach and its treasures.

Wo/man does not live by bread alone II

“The attempt and not the deed confounds us.”

I love this quote by Shakespeare

A  clay boat of shells with a ceramic blanket and treasure chest

Vessels, show the way to an empty heart..

Sticks, beach glass, shells, a Mexican dog, a Tunisian Camel..

Brushes, meditation oil, flower press, vessel made by a friend.

  A book of  Walt Whitman
