The time is winter as it nears its end and objects remain
snow dappled;
each flake takes hand
with its brother
until spring returns and sweeps them away.

Lovely photos. If it ever stops snowing, I’d love to head out to the gardens and do the same thing.
*Sigh* Snow is looming in our near future. I can’t grumble, we haven’t endured back-back storms like so many others. Still…spring please HURRY!
I’m with you – thankful to have missed out on the harsh winter weather, still longing to get my hands into some warm soil!
Lovely photos!

As determined as I am to find beauty in the winter days that remain I must confess… I’d rather be taking pictures of spring bulbs, songbirds and sunshine!
Nice pictures! I’m glad winter is almost over, but I’m not looking forward to the insects that warmer months bring. What insect control do you use? I found this organic bug spray on google, but I wanted someone’s input: http://www.saferbrand.com/store/garden-care/5102
Hi! Thanks for reading my blog
I don’t buy commercial products for pest control. (I use the recipes in the “concoctions” section of my blog.) That said, read the product label very carefully. If you spray your plants, you’re spraying the soil as well and you don’t want to kill beneficial ground-dwelling bees etc. Also, there are many caterpillars and larvae that will become beneficial pollinators in your garden. You don’t want to harm their already dwindling numbers. I suggest trying an organic repellent.
The integration of the bright photos with the telling of the tips is a helpful and enlightening example to all of us who blog. Keep up the great work.
Thank you so much for your encouraging words, Nathan! I hope you’ll continue to enjoy reading.
