Spring weeding
Can you tell I haven’t done anything in my garden lately? My inattention is painfully evident now that spring has awakened the weeds. My work is cut out before I get this year’s garden started.
Docked
The Black Ball Coho Ferry isn’t going anywhere these days. It is our transport to and from Victoria, British Columbia. The Canadian border is closed, at least until April 30th.
Theme Day: School
Today’s City Daily Photo theme challenge is “School.” The sign above is posted outside a local Montessori school that has been closed as part of our state’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
