The first tulips of the season.
THE PILGRIM

I took Mom to visit her old Master naturalist buddies at the park where she worked for almost 20 years. While she was sitting and watching them work on the demonstration garden I went around and snapped a few shots. These are some of the better ones.

There is a lot of relief to be found in hanging around nature. My gf would probably be a basket case if it wasn't for the "distraction" of tending her garden

Mom used to be both a Master Naturalist and a Master Gardner. Both groups gave her lifetime memberships and other such honors but the dementia has taken away all her knowledge of such things. It really stinks to see such a big part of her life drift away from her.

My gf's late mother, who died at 94 last summer, was a very keen gardener, and although she was lucid right to the end, physical disability caused her to "lose the will to live". Her garden and her cat (one of a long line of felines) meant everything to her. It is indeed very hard to witness this.
My gf has inherited both characteristics in spades, as various photos I've posted here attest. When we listed the house for sale, my gf sent the realtor pictures of her mum's garden when it was really cared for which probably helped to sell it.

Our Sweet Cherry in bloom.
Heaven just got 1.4 miles closer to me.
Sarah and Ray recently bought a 3-D printer. Their first test run produced these magnetic tea bag dispensers for the fridge door.
They asked if Ruthie wanted some and she said that there were seven too many.
