Catching Up

Posted on by Catriona McDonald

As happens every Spring, the outdoors start calling and I spend less and less time in front of the keyboard. But, I have been dragging my picture-taking device with me into the woods and into the garden, so I’ll share my adventures from the last few weeks visually instead.

  2. Lovely pictures! The tree is awesome. I don’t spend as much time at the computer this time of year either. More fun being outside, and taking pictures of all the plants. I have an old vine of Halls Honeysuckle growing by my back door and does it ever smell heavenly when it’s blooming.
