The lavender started blooming early this year. That isn’t a real lawn; it is mowed weeds that dry out when the rain quits and the heat begins.
The Middle Fork of the mighty Kaweah River, looking downstream and upstream. The white-water is a little less than bright white because of the rain. (Ain’t nobody here complainin’ ‘bout that rain!)
Man oh man, I love me some green!
I was pulling weeds in the yard and heard (teehee, almost wrote “herd”) some funny sounds. These deer were eating weeds mere feet from me, chewing kind of loudly.
The first blue dicks, also known as brodaeia (can’t spell it, gave up trying), with an intense bush lupine behind. This is not in my yard.
Hi Pippin. You are the cutest cat, even if you have an entitlement attitude.

So gorgeous! My lawn is also just a patch of cut-down field grasses and weeds, and I like it. Maintaining a “real lawn” is way too much work for me! I love the photo of Pippin!
Michelle, I wish we could water year around and keep the “lawn” green. We used to, but our water rates went through the roof. So now it is simply seasonal weeds.
Everything is SO beautiful. I saw crocuses under a tree on my front lawn yesterday, but I also realize we could still have a major snow storm at any time. Spring is here, but I’m not putting away my shovels just yet…
Elisabeth, I’m not sure I even know what crocuses look like. Want to show us those in a blog post?
Stay tuned for a picture tomorrow 🙂
