Have to record a lot of pics today--busy day for photogenic stuff.

First is what I'm calling first day of Spring garden. Viburnum, Sambuca nigra, iris reticulata, and an amazing crocus that I don't remember having before. Did I plant some new crocuses last Fall?

And then came the real full moon, apparently 30,000 km closer to earth than in the past two decades, and 15% larger, 30x brighter. (How do they define brightness?)

Had to also tak a pic of Grouse Mountain from Royal Oak.
(Really don't  love Blogspot's formatting!!)

This silk arrived yesterday--actually arrived a few days ago, but didn't see the ticket. Always wonder why most items are left at the door, but some are taken back to the PO. Turns out it's registered mail. In this case from India. 750 m.

Bought these yesterday at Home Depot. Amazingly cheap--one wonders what the hourly pay was for the growers!

Kept the white/green one and gave the speckled one to Beth. Matched her scarf!

Neville  St. Cherry trees about to bloom. And can you believe these weeping whatevers! I think there are 4 or 5 of them but couldn't get them all at my angle--there's a slight rise on the property.

Notice any themes in the almost 1/4year of pic- blogging? We have fish, garden, Deer Lake, more garden, knitting, Deer Lake, fish, more knitting, more garden, more Deer Lake, more fish. Anything else?

This was in the mail when I got home, so after I'd done several rows of Coventry, tried out this cotton. Of course then spent ages looking for just th right pattern to knit with it.

Mar 4 2011. So sorry, out of order :-). Mary B told me on her way in that the mountains looked amazing, so I looked behind me on the way home, and indeed, she was right. By the time I got home and out again, the clouds were beginning to creep in, and the sun wasn't sparkling up the snow as it had been 20 min before. But still pretty stunning!
