there is a small breeze and the birds are singing.
I had a lazy start...
I enjoyed a leisurely coffee and read the local paper.
I did some deadheading and weeding.
Mr. HB and I went for a walk.
We took the overland route to the market.
Our rooftop is not visible here
this is our neighbourhood
Looking east
Looking west
Looking south
A glimpse of my mothers' condo is at the top right
Red poppies
Large crepe like petals and when open reveal a lush bounty within...
Reminds me of a sea anenome...
My garden is a combination of native and non indiginous plantings.
I have successfully cultivated some parts
and other areas have a different agenda!
I learned early to pick my battles...
I cannot tame every inch, I have a limited amount of energy...
and besides there's always a good book beckoning...
I often wonder what the settlers saw when they first landed..
a dense forest of trees,
rocky outcropings,
hills and beaches...
it must have been magical.
Enjoy your weekend whatever you do.

How utterly BEAUTIFUL! I want to live in the condo wit your mum x
Breathtaking views! no wonder some of my friends refuse to move back to Ontario.
I love poppies, and can't wait for the day, I can start planting my own gardens.
