Don’t Be A Tease
We love visiting local nurseries. Always looking for new ideas for The Orchard Compound. Spotted these words of wisdom at G E & B Nursery in Enumclaw. Nice folks. Be kind to your plants.
Mole Kill
Should I be sad that this furry little creature has died or should I feel immense satisfaction? Forgive me. This battle has raged for many years.
Dreaming Of Spring
Today’s sunny and bright weather was infectious. When we did our weekly shopping I got carried away at the seed display.
Gelatinous Goo
No, not the name of a punk rock band. We spotted this stuff on our midday walk here at home on a sunny day. More of the fungus among us. Always fascinating.
‘Lefty’ And Friends
These three guys showed up just before sunrise on a dark, drizzly morning. The bull on the right is missing his left antler, hence the nickname. Never tire of watching them out our living room window.
Brightest Light
As the world watches the conjunction of Saturn and Jupiter this evening, we on the Orchard Compound celebrate another event. On this date long ago in the U.S. Territory of Alaska a child was born. On the darkest day of the year she brought a light into this world that still shines and fills our hearts with joy. Happy birthday Joyce Carol. We’ve been together for more than 45 years. Here’s to many more.
