It wasn't the sunset I had been expecting, but still beautiful in a kind of awesome way. There was a high school football game across from us.
I don't know if they got to finish it before the storm came.
“The sky
gathers its thoughts, and none of them are gentle.”
The Japanese dogwoods are in bloom now. Have you ever seen one? This one is in front of the post office.
The blooms are a bit different looking from regular Dogwoods
“Stand
beneath a dogwood and you’ll hear the hush of old springtime spells.”
Driving in front of Target the other day, I spotted this row of plants. I thought it may be Lavender, but I was wrong. It is called CATMINT!
It smells like lavender with a hint of mint. It is related to both catnip and mint. It got it's name because it is related to the mint family, and cats love it. I had never heard of it before!
Catmint is
the polite cousin. Catnip is the wild one.
As usual, I like to show my calendar on the first day of each month. This month is a Lapwing and her babies. I've never seen a real one.
“June is the
month where time wanders barefoot.”
This weekend's full moon is a blue moon! Meaning that there are two full moons in the same month.
It is also a Micro Moon, meaning that it is the smallest it can be; because it is the farthest from the earth.
If it was actually blue, it would look like my filtered version.
Here is a chart I found online showing the difference in size between the largest and the smallest moon.
This is my last post on the Cherry Blossom festival. By now you must be seeing pink in your dreams! Here is the artwork that the kids made.
And this is the fashion show.
“It is spring time
now! While the world looks for a new war to fight, you look for a cherry
blossom to watch! Let the stupid seeks the violence; you seek the elegance!”
