I have not observed any of these in my garden yet, but I’m hoping soon!

I stopped at the local Java Joe’s for a latte. This sign caught my eye…

I have now posted the picture I really wanted…believe it or not, we are in Sequim. Yes, rainy Washington has some dry spots. We are in the rainshadow of the Olympics. If you read information about Sequim, you will find the average rainfall is generally listed as between 17-19 inches a year. This cactus is reported by the oldsters to be native to this area. Thanks to all who visited and guessed at the temporary picture I posted (see thumbnail below) I was in Music City, Nashville, TN, at the Country Music Hall of Fame.

Now on to the rest of the world….for May 1, 2007 Theme Day.

I’m almost home.

I’ve noticed at the soccer game some of the fans bring their pooches with them. This one is just a pup and quickly lost interest in the game. He/she would have much prefered to go play with the other doggies.

Tomorrow I will be home, hug my grandbabies, and find out the highlights for the last two soccer games.

This is a repost of the rooster in front of my favorite garden shop.

I am away from home and will be posting some new…some old, photos. Please wait for me.

Apparent cows have ear tags too! Who knew?
