I knew it was going to be a good day when it was already joy-full by 7:30 am.
When Paul rides his bike he often discovers places he wants to take me to. Just the other day we drove around a nearby coastal neighborhood I'd never been to. And recently he's been riding by the sidewalk wildflower garden that he found last year watching for the right timing for a visit.
It's not all in full bloom yet...but far enough along that it became the destination of our morning walk. It's coming along...and I'll be keeping an eye on it over the next few weeks.The bright orange wallflower, also known as prairie rocket was gorgeous and compliments all the blues in the garden.
The blue flax was in full bloom but the bachelor buttons are just getting started!
If that wasn't' enough....on the way home we came across a fabulous found object by the side of the road.
I'm not sure what little vehicle this came from...and some might see trash. But I'm seeing garden or woodland art. Right?And Paul found this little guy on his bike ride.










"Coastal neighborhood"—aaaaahhh. Whoa! Those garden blues and oranges are spectacular together! Your early morning walk, your local flower gardens, Paul's bike rides, your found objects, your rock wall art: all JOY-FULL! Did your little green t-rex roll the wheel into place??!
ReplyDeleteHa ha...I did pack a lot into this post. Thanks for celebrating it with me Dotty!
DeleteI'm commenting on this post and yesterday's, MaryAnn. The journal books you made are amazing! I'm sure they will be received with great joy by their owners!
