Deeply Rooted
Today is the day when the chipmunk comes to visit ..(my three year old suprise grandson..do not ask just another American saga)
I have such spring fever as most of you guys do I am sure ..except those who live in Southern Ca trying to find out what to do with tomato plants !!! I am so jealous of you!!!!
We are picking him up in 2 hours ..then we are going on a hike my husband's newest nature score of an entire beaverhood!!! When I say "National Geographic moment" here I mean it!!!! Here is a perfect dam a perfect pond.. a perfect lodge ....lots of chewed trees and best of all there is a very frisky boy there who is proud of his stuff!!! Just strutting his goods in a very animated way! .. He is so visible and lots of tail slapping it is just so fun! Less than a mile from my house
it is so beautiful I can not even tell you ...but not fun dragging my butt through the mud to get there ....today there is some sun I see it!!!! .hopefully we will get some good photos today ..I want to video him but he is way too smart for us
we think he found a girlfriend because on top of getting to see all this in the midst of urban sprawl ...there is a lot of tribble sounding talk inside the den
I am almost feeling a big voyeuristic here (insert blush)
the sun is out I can actually see the Olympic MTs . it feels like a heavy plate has been lifted off our heads here!!! It feels to me like the sky literally sits... ...right on top of your head here
while you smothered in snow and ice I feel for you ..we all really love where we live don't we??? if not MOVE!!!
but you can see why I am excited to get out today
I wish you all a very nice day as well and hopefully I can post pictures for anyone who enjoys the idea of an entire beaver setup ...they are amasingly manic are they not??? wow the stuff they can get accomplished!!!
they remind me with all their projects of people I know ..ok me too
I know some people curse them
I say "whatever" to each his own pest ..personally I prefer an owl grab a chicken and take off than to have them die of disease or a neighbors cat getting them ..I like having an owl in the trees over my house ...so that is where my brain is at
we are also going to plant seeds in those insanely pricey apple packs people get at costco that look like biospheres? you know what I mean? yes people here in WA buy apples like that and I shamelessly say "STUPID!!!!"
when they do I take them and use them for mini green houses ..
today we are going to start a bunch of flowers!
I have Althea (rose of sharon) from Greensage already sprouting and am so excited to see it ...thanks Ron if you are around the seeds are all sprouting!
anyway maybe if we donate money we can have a blog spot for this kind of mindless ramble
in the mean time consider this an open mindless garden thread and participate freely with no rules of topic
(all with in the board TOS however )
have a good day plant something to cheer yourself up if you can!
I need to also rant about damp off later but it is too nice for that now
