Some of the old-time Stampin' Up buddies.

We missed getting a photo of #5!

Orchid adoption. Again.

Oncidium. I'm slightly addicted to these.
Maxillaria.
This guy smells of coconuts.
yum.
And...my very first Phalaenopsis orchid.
They're supposed to be the easiest to care for.
I don't know if I agree.

MKE area ramblings

A bunch of girls gathered at Jax's

place again a few weeks ago.

The main attraction was going to see

A Prarie Home Companion live.


But, we got some other wanderings in as well.


Like Cedarburg, a neat little downtown area

full of boutiques.

And lunching.

And dinnering.

And special meeting-ing.

All with these wonderful ladies.

Of whom I may have been the only one NOT wearing pink!

(Until Mex arrived, that is.)

Signs of spring



Yep. You can tell its spring when I give in.


And polish and shine my boots.


In preparation for putting them away.


I think they needed the polish!

Accident prone

This is what one looks like

one week after

taking quite the header

off a bike.

We're all glad Brod-eye is a-ok!

Spring.



I'm looking through these photos and realizing something.

I took these exactly one month ago today.

The same day that I went hiking and got sweaty.

Because it was 80°.

On March 17th.

Now, at the normal time for them to bloom,

the redbuds and crocii are all done.

But they were pretty while they lasted!
