Daily Snap: Fog

Day 36: 4.18.2009
White Rock Canyon
After the evening snow the night before, Saturday was the most beautiful morning. Fresh snow covering blooms, bright blue ski, and a rare fog lingering around the hills. Java and I had a lovely, long run to take it all in. My friend's wedding shower was Saturday, too, but I forgot to get a picture of us!

My snowy garden

It snowed galore! The sweet peas are hopefully sleeping soundly in their beds.

Vacation

Not that I've got any readers out there, but just for the record I am very pleased to announce that C and I are going on vacation. We'll be roadtripping around California and should be back next Monday. Or maybe Tuesday. Bah-bye!

Daily Snap: Climbing

Day 33: 4.15.2009 YMCA Climbing Gym, Los Alamos
I'd never really been climbing before. Up the wall once when I was younger, but that's it. A ski patrol buddy took me (thanks) and it was a blast! Arms=sore.

Daily Snap: Car Frosting

Day 31: 4.13.2009Our Driveway
It reminded me of frosting on a cake, except on the hood of my car and I wouldn't dare eat it.

Daily Snap: Easter Sky

Day 30: 4.12.2009

Water Canyon

Hours after our Easter dinner, I decided to take an evening jog with Java. I am so blessed to have seen such a beautiful sight- constantly evolving sky-blue-pink with snow covered peaks in the distance. Ahhh.

Daily Snap: Puddles

Day 29: 4.11.2009

Neighbor's driveway*, White Rock

It rained! And in the mountains, it snowed. And it made puddles and they were wet! Wow, we don't get that often.

*See that fenced-off area behind the driveway? That's the garden that inspired mine. We've got a wonderful neighbor!

Daily Snap: Bedframe

Day 28: 4.10.2009C's Backyard
Look, it's the frame for his raised bed. And his helper dog, Chaos, checking out a chunk of root. We got the aluminum walls up that night, but silly me forgot to take an after picture.

Daily Snap: Isotopes

Day 27: 4.9.2009Isotopes Park, Albuquerque
C and I met his buddies for the season opener: Isotopes vs. Omaha Royals. Victorious 14-8, woot woot! Stadium- nice, lines- long, funnel cake fries- goooood!

Daily Snap: Scrap

Day 26: 4.8.2009

Compost Tumbler, Our Backyard

I just about forgot to take a picture, so all you get is photo scrap of, well, vegetable scrap! Someday those banana peels and mushy grapes will grow up to be wonderful compost for my garden. Well, I won't have much of a garden after I move to New York, but the compost will be happy wherever.

Daily Snap: Spinach

Day 25: 4.7.2009My Garden
That, my friends, is an up-and-coming spinach, one who survived the snow to boot!

Day 24: 4.6.2009C's Backyard- future home of vegetables!
Seeing as he lives in a giant sandbox named Rio Rancho, the fact that stray grass was growing in this particular corner of the yard might be a good sign. Future location of raised bed experiment numero uno. Clothing line post as a trellis? Good idea.
