Spring Has Sprung

What a beautiful day we've had. I spent a few hours this morning in the studio, and this afternoon, we went to the Oregon Garden in Silverton with my son, Josh, and daughter-in-law, Lori.

Here are some photos from the garden:




This is me, surrounded by clematis flowers and bees!
Yikes!






Here's the rest of the gang: Josh, Lori and Jim.




This is the gate leading in to the children's garden. I love it! It's made from all sorts of found objects.

The palm prints are from kids whose parents bought a tile as a donation when the garden was first starting. The prints and names were fired onto the tiles, so they'll be there a long time.

The Weird Plants Garden truly lives up to its name.


What a fine time! Blue sky. Warm sun. Family. It just doesn't get any better than that.
