The last Saturday in February is the last day of the month. Let's say goodbye to Winter Snow Storms too!
Come sit in the shade and let's watch for the Hummingbirds to arrive. We have had a beautiful week of Spring weather in the upper 70's and very low 80's.
Every Hummingbird is beautiful and so fascinating to watch. I can hardly wait to see the first one of the year.
There are so many varieties from all over the world. And they travel so far twice a year.
I have plants that were under plastic that are already blooming and waiting for these unusual creatures.
In about 5 more days, we should have rain! Wouldn't it be neat to see these tiny Blessings from God this coming week.
It is Friday and it was a perfect morning starting at 48°.
My Christmas or Easter Cactus is blooming in between! I have 3 pots in the house.
One is Peach colored bloom, this one is yellow and the third one that did bloom a few blooms in January has white, red, and bright pink flowers with blooms just putting out again.
This Orchid is fairly new and the blooms are just gorgeous in color.
When they first put out buds, I get so excited to see what color or design it is because they only bloom about twice a year but the blooms last for months.
You can see the green plant to the far left and the pretty pink leaf plant. They both put out a bloom sinimar to a Peace Lily!
As most of you know, our son, Wayne, and his family went to Tel Aviv, Israel for a week. The company he works for, RAD, has its headquarters there.
I have over 400 pictures from them. I have loaded both my NOTH and Boomer pages with a few of them. I will attach 2 zip files in my email with these pictures. The third file in my email is videos in 2 different formats hoping both Mac & Windows users can view them.
They rode Camels & took a tour of the desert and saw the Dead Sea. They toured Jerusalem and got pictures like this, Mt. of Olives. They saw places that Jesus walked, where He was crucified, where His mother, Mary, stood to watch them crucify him, the tomb, the upper room, the wailing wall and so many other places.
They are so blessed to have seen the scenery, the architecture, the food, the history of such a different and historic land.
Just think about how long some things have been there and how many people have walked there since Jesus.
Every time I go through the pictures, I find something else. The plants are just beautiful and the beach is magnificent. The colors of the sky & sunsets are breathtaking. The average temperatures range from 45° F to 85°F or 9°C to 29°C year round. Sounds nice right now. I hope you enjoy all the pictures. As you know, I love sharing! Blessings & Hugs! Pam
It is Wednesday and I surely needed Jesus this last week. Thank you for being there for me as my friends. Reba is finding her way out the doggie door and back in, most of the time. She is still disoriented and on occasion just walks and walks and walks, and bumps into the wall or whatever is in her path. At least she is sleeping once in a while too. Thank you Jesus, she is still with us!
Friday was a perfect 80° day. Today, Saturday, it will be 70°. Sunday it will be 75°. Take your pick, which is your favorite? In the sun yesterday, it felt like 90°. I was in the shade with a light breeze for 2 hours talking on the phone to my daughter and then I was in the sun watering and talking to plants for about 45 minutes. It is what I consider a perfect day!
These two pictures were taken about a minute apart. Mr. Cardinal and Mrs. Cardinal were both visiting our feeder. Love birds are in the air!
I have about 3, maybe more, Strawberry plants that have been under our plastic "greenhouse". Yes, I ate all 4 delicious, juicy strawberries! There are buds on all the strawberry plants and even newly forming strawberries.
I was so surprised when our plants were uncovered! Look at the beautiful colors! Happy plants! Happy ME! Rbt is happy I don't have to buy too many new plants! And yet, he knows I will.
After all, these hanging baskets have been hanging there for many months. They are not real plants. So they look good all year round in the rain, sun, wind and freeze!
