Orchids are just…weird.
The beautiful freaky flowers of Sherman Gardens…

When I was out walking…
The answer, of course, is, “It’s your fault if something happens because no one will do anything about the wild predator coming over your wall to eat your pet.”
Beautiful succulents.
White irises.
Little free library with an excellent selection of kids books. I know this because I’ve donated quite a few.
Alfie, waiting for her friend Mr. Toes to come at her by sticking his feet under the fence. Judging from their size, this dog is as big as a Clydesdale.
Lovely geranium mix.
Alfie’s quite the rebel. And yes, I always pick up after her.
Retro cool…
Oh that 1960s office block architecture!
Spring at the park…
Flowers, greenery, and a full lake!
A wholesome family outing.
A popular photo spot. Probably trampled flat by the end of the week by people taking graduation, wedding, etc. photos.
One of my favorite trees. It takes the path of least resistance.
Relaxation.
It’s beautiful to see the lake full again. It’s a natural lake so it’s a good drought measurer.
Beautiful park, beautiful clouds.
Let’s pretend…
…that I live in a place full of flowers, big skies, and barns! And it’s not just a hiking path behind a strip mall with a house that looks like a barn in the distance.
How does the garden grow?
Pretty darn well, thanks!
The orange and blue color combo makes me so happy!
Look familiar?
One of the locals…
I love these little guys. So dang cute.
Why does Laurie cross the bridge?
To get to the other side. Where the special and delicious French pastries are! Except that the bakery was closed.
Backyard is looking good and springy!
Wild and free!
Currently blooming…
Nasturtiums still going strong…
Golden poppy, one of THREE…WOW!
One last iris, a totally different color from the rest…
A sword lily. I had no idea we even planted one.
Last of the ranunculus…
Bachelor’s buttons…the bees love them.
The Meyer lemon is going nuts!
Geraniums still cranking out the blooms. A lot of our geraniums were brought from our old house. And a couple were there when we moved in 30+ years ago. I’m sentimental about them.
New flower bed, for future blooms!
