Gwen's Kernels of Wisdom

Have you ever wondered why some jobs take forever to start? Today I was wandering around the house wondering what I was going to do. It was raining. So no yard or garden work was going to get done. Don was busy with a carpentry project. I opted for doing the dishes.
Three job options were open for me. One, I know and love; yard and garden. Two, I know and detest; dishes. The other, carpentry; don’t understand it and avoid it like the plague.
Sometimes we don’t start a project simply because we aren’t sure how to do it.

Last Friday of the Month

There was a passenger overload on the 10:35 ferry this morning. It meant we needed to get our boat in the water and take a quick trip over to Chemainus. What a beautiful place to come home to.

What's blooming?

Here we are on the last day of winter, we have snowdrops giving us a few last days of their brilliant white while many other plants are coming into their blooms.
Noticed this past weekend:
Crocuses, Wild Currant, Indian Plum, Winter Aconite, Vibernum,
Early Rhodos, Daffodils, Various Catkins, Forsythia
Let us know what's blooming in your garden,
or in our natural surroundings.

End of a stormy week.

We were able to fit in a Burchell Hike this afternoon, between rain showers. A few trees are down, but nothing that hinders the willing walker.
