It's been a little glum around here. All work and no play...you know what that leads to.
So a day outdoors with friends is just what the doctor would have ordered.
Let's pretend that we're floating away to - does it matter where?
We can take some time to smell the flowers...
And let last year's grasses filter the view of this tiny part of the ocean.
I discover the fronds of new growth as the yarrow pushes its way past old stems.
At the end of the day, I felt exactly as this white-crowned sparrow...let's just open our beaks and SING!
The picture of the mountains and ships, wonderful!!!! But the little sparrow with his beak open singing, I'm in HEAVEN, it is wonderful!!!!

I'm always up for a bit of fun! And a journey to who knows where!
ReplyDeleteLove the yarrow peeping up, I'm wondering if it's the same plant that yarrow essential oil comes from, probably is, I'll have to google it.
Certainly had fun reading your post!
Stephanie, it is the same plant!
ReplyDeleteThe oil from its leaves is anti-inflammatory and great for people with pollen allergies! Wow!
Lovely capture of that little bird singing! You lifted my spirits.
ReplyDeletethat's lovely! I feel all relaxed now :)
ReplyDeleteYour blog has reminded me that I used to hook rugs and it was fun. The same for crocheting. Maybe it's time to haul out some of my old hobbies and give them another run.
ReplyDeleteYou caught the sparrow singing, that's amazing!
ReplyDeleteWow! Your photos are AWESOME! Just gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteAm glad you went out, Stephanie, enjoying the great outdoors! We all need it!
