I wasn’t going to bother posting this week.

Because there is nothing going on.

And how many flower pictures can you look at?

Plus, my dog of the week picture was awful. It’s hard to get a still shot when all the dog wants to do is play fetch! “C’mon, throw the stick–again, again, again!” And then she was exhausted and slowed down a wee bit for this pic. That is one pooped pooch!

Diane Bedard, the publisher of the NatureCoaster.com reached out to me about writing an article about the Homosassa River Restoration Project. She guessed that I might know some of the people on the committee. Yes. I might. So in turn, I reached out to Steve Minguy who is the President of the non-profit group and he gave me a status report. Good things are happening!

Here’s my article just in case you are bored and need something to read: Cleaning the Homosassa River.

And I gotta show some flower photos, right?

New Category! Views of the week.

And here’s the dog of the week! I don’t have a name but that dog did not like me!

Squirrel of the Week!

Terry had to move the rodent picnic table because they were dropping the bird seed and then they couldn’t get their head under the table. Rather than using their cute little paws to grab the seed. They chewed up the table. Yeah. That makes sense!

Nasty little creatures. Terry and I have a difference of opinions on these crack rats.

Have a super weekend.

So. I’ve been sewing. And eating. And playing music. I’m quite determined to be an expert on my little ukulele before the learning center opens back up. Watching Youtube videos. Practicing.

Working in my yard. It’s amazing how all the flowers are responding to actually getting fertilized, weeded, and watered on a regular basis.

And taking pictures. And here’s some photos from this past week.

The irises continue to bloom like crazy!

The irises will soon be finished blooming but now the day lilies are stepping up!

And from other parts of the gardens….

I received two gifts this week. Both pleasant surprises. My niece Michelle sent this banana tree to me from a nursery in Arizona. So cute! Instructions included! Love it! I have to repot it in May.

And my friend Connie stopped by with this homemade present from the heart!

And for DOG OF THE WEEK. This is Flyer.

And I have TWO SQUIRRELS OF THE WEEK!

Terry built the little rodents their own picnic table!

More photos next week!

On March 12th, the Old Homosassa Learning Center held a meeting to plan an open house that we wanted to hold in May. On March 13th, the State of Florida started shutting down. Think that we will be holding our open house in the Fall!

We have slowly been updating the building’s interior. New floors and paint was installed in the main room last summer. We’ve been working on the kitchen and it is just about done. Just some minor painting needs to be completed. We also set up a music room for our acoustic instruments. Not quite ready to do a reveal on that, but, since the open house is pushed back, I thought I’d show you what the kitchen looks like now.

Thanks to generous donations of money and labor, we were able to install new cabinets and paint. I wish I had a before photo but it was just so UGLY I couldn’t bring myself to take a picture! This is a happy space now!

Since I can’t share with you where to go and what to do in the community–cause there is nothing to do or anywhere to go–I’m just going to post photos. This might turn into a photo blog!

DOG OF THE WEEK!

SQUIRREL OF THE WEEK

Hope you have a great safe weekend!
