·2 years agoJust dropping in to say Hi @katzrul15 , I didn't know you were still here & just hoping all is going well for you!
I woke up to snow this AM, so no flower pics, but I do have something cool from a couple of weeks ago while driving through western NM. This appeared on the western horizon. My first thought was aliens, since it was New Mexico 😉 It was heavily backlit & moved VERY fast. The second pic was just a minute or so after the first one. I had no idea what it was but had narrowed it down to aliens or a rocket or an alien rocket 🙂 While SpaceX occurred to me, I thought there was no way, cuz that would be 2 states away, plus I had no idea if there was a launch. Anyway, called my hubby from the road & he looked it up & confirmed - Aliens 🙄 OK, JK, he confirmed it was a SpaceX launch! It was super cool & I am amazed b/c this thing looked to be 50 miles away, not 2 states away. First time I've ever seen a rocket launch & it was really exciting since it was so unexpected.

·2 years agoMy woodsy glad that got relocated when the garage was added in 2005.
 
On our trip to nearby city today we saw lawns had been mowed. Here the grass is barely an inch high. Buds on some of the trees. Dogwood, apple trees, and others in bloom 40 miles south, but not here yet. Over 1000 ft difference in elevation.
After the wife's appointment I did a little detour to show her a row of apple trees in bloom. That detour was on the way to the grocery store to get a take-out shrimp dinner to share.
After the shrimp it was off to the "smokes shop". From there to Harbor Freight to get a package of button batteries that have been OOS for a while. Off from there to Wally and then TSC to get some sunflower seeds for the birds, and chips.

Nice the new thread was launched ... I occasionally read but have been busy elsewhere. But, if we are sharing spring pics I just took these quick off the back deck. The first pic is a little misleading, it makes our yard look flat which it isn't ... it is a pretty steep yard in places. Our dogwoods are in bloom which is nice. I started taking the 3 rail fence down since most of the 4 x 4 posts have rotted. We may or may not replace it.
If you are wondering about the groundhog either he or his children are still around ... so we made the executive decision to move the shed UP the yard ... I will do some prep work for its new location which will make it hard for those critters to dig under the shed. In any event, love the other pics everyone shared!

·2 years agoHere is a picture of my lungworts. They line the flower bed on the front of my house on the north side. They really don't care where they are and they spread like crazy. I just dig them up and put them anywhere and they grow! The flowers are either pink or purple, but mine have cross-pollinated and have both colors of flowers. The leaves are variegated, but have a nasty, prickly, hairy feel to them.

·2 years ago@policequilts How in the world did you catch the killdeer in the picture? They always run away when I try to take pictures of them. Fantastic shot! What side of the house do you have your phlox? I cannot seem to grow it. The only thing blooming in my yard (besides the trees) is my lungwort.
policequilts
·2 years agoThe killdeer did run away from me, but when I found the nest and got closer to it, one parent was "playing injured" 10 feet away and the other one was running up to me and then play injured.
The majority of the creeping phlox is on the west side of the house. More in the open and some in the shade.

Great photo.
Also noted............... doesn't appear anyone is sleeping there above the church steps this time.
jewelbiz
·2 years agoYes!
He hasn’t been sleeping 💤 there in months after almost a decade…
Whoever he is, wherever he is, I’m worried about him!

·2 years agoFor @katzrul15 Spring flowers
Dutchman Breeches, vincas,
grape hyacinths, hot pink creeping phlox, lavender creeping phlox
Road curve garden has white with purple and purple wood violets.
Just starting to bloom the burgundy and yellow wood violets.
I have a pair of killdeer birds nesting in the back corner of the yard.
I haven't seen a killdeer nest, but the have them on the ground.
When a predator comes close to the nest, they will walk in opposite directions and fake injuries to draw the predator away.
This is a killdeer bird on the right ( has red eyes ) and directly across to the left side are 3 greenish speckled, blotched eggs.

·2 years agoI just got back and tried to search for "Chocolate Vent" and nada, zero, zilch, nothing.
Is this going to replace the CHOCOLATE VENT thread ?
Now I have to search HOMESTEAD GANG. . ( oh my brain 🤕 )
HEY!
good to see you post @katzrul15

OP2 years agoYes. Appears we are in remodel mode. Not sure why.
Been a little busy with a health issue. Hopefully, getting on to better things. Life certainly has its' curve balls.....:)
Have missed the pix, catching up and hearing about everyone's sales, booths, websites, etc.
Please reach out to those who posted before. Will check back later and see what spring pix I have missed. No flowers here - hoping to tackle that soon when schedule eases up.
policequilts
·2 years agoOh, if you have curve balls, you have health issues. 😄 😄

@inhawaii - come say hello.
What is jewel's ID? I really relied on the thread showing last 5 posters. Should have stored IDs.
