frogs croaking already? this is a crazy
winter/spring already. i sure hope summer
isn't too hot too long. i like hot weather
but i also like to have actual seasonal
weather too. going from below average
to 20F above average in less than a
week is ...

today, did a bit of weeding and even
watered some of the strawberries since
they were partially heaved out of the
ground and looked a little too dry.

before weeding i was not expecting to
see much other than the early crocuses,
but i went and wandered around the gardens
and found these up already. quickly
done too as they weren't out two days
ago when i walked by that garden.
tricksy.

then i had to put up a picture of the
horsetail root structure. the picture is
actually a panorama shot of three stitched
together. the length of the space is about
15ft and about 5ft from top to bottom.

another of the red patch and chives. for
some reason the picture of the white irises
in front of the red patch is very popular
overseas. so let's give 'em some more and
see what happens.

a few others i liked.

after several years of taking pictures it is
quite a pile i'm getting, and many of them are
worth posting to the website eventually. i'm
still fiddling and testing things out to see
what i like for a generator/site layout, etc.

as i'm goofing around with unstable software
at the moment i had one other picture i was
going to put up tonight, but it's all barfing
when i start it up so that will have to wait
until another time.


check back once in a while for updates,
when i get the actual gizmos set up the
way i like i'll probably do the flower
galleries first since those are the most
fun.
