After yesterday’s rain, sleet and hail, we saw blue skies and fluffy clouds today and the new snow on Bolivar.

Amaryllis bloomed again in March with a new stalk and 4 blooms. First stalk bloomed on Valentine’s Day. A foot of snow on Sunday, March 20, 2011 didn’t phase the Oriental poppies a bit. They are looking great. I took this photo through the car window and the fence, because they would have ran if [...]

Amaryllis now has 3 full blooms. It is gorgeous! Thanks Kathy Varnell for the Christmas bulb! Wiggle tail, the cat, waiting to be fed on a cold, snowy morning. By Saturday afternoon the four-inches of snow was melted at our house, but it had stayed cold on Mt. Bolivar.

Mt. Shasta on a late afternoon – Nov. 8, 2010 Yep, another rainbow after a November rain. Yahoo. Got to get a bunch of rosehips picked for tea, before the hard frosts make them mushy. These are on the many wild roses bushes on our property. Amy, the dog, and Black Cat go for a [...]

Last year, the “Pioneer Press” held a contest encouraging rural-living residents to decorate their mailbox in red, white and blue! This year, the contest was not held, but just-in-case it was, Bonnie O’Brien did a bang-up job decorating her mailbox on Island Road in the middle of Scott Valley. She gave me a call, because [...]

Got some great shots the night of June 10, 2010. Went out to take a pic of the sunset and decided to also try the iris and lilac. These came out striking. I love it when serendipity happens! This iris is so hardy. It has tripled the space it takes and just keeps on blooming, [...]

Rain or shine, heat or cold, Doc Scranton and his friend, Dick McKee, regularly give Doc’s horses their ration of exercise. Actually, Doc says his horses want to get out and pull the wagon, so even as it sprinkled at the end of May, Doc spent the mid-part of the day giving his two draft [...]

Etna boasts about 700 residents with a Business District that is one-block long. It does over-flow a building or [...]

Towne’s big T on hillside

I received a comment that they couldn’t find the T photo or maybe couldn’t find the T on the photo that was made from the daffodils by Kerry and Scott Towne on their Eastside hill. This was a month ago, when I should have posted the photo after talking about it in my Pioneer Press [...]
