Flowers and reflections

Last year my wife planted these flowers (six different kinds–only two and a bit of a third can be seen in this photograph) in the planter box on our deck. After a month or two they died, as flowers do, which was good actually. Normally we plant something and the deer eat them by the next morning. The deer didn’t touch these.

We did nothing to the planter box over the winter. The dead flowers remained. This spring they have all come back to life and have been giving us great visual pleasure for the past month plus. Incredible flowers these are–to be able to bounce back like this after sitting under snow and freezing temperatures all winter and at the same time not be tempting to the deer.

Pansy Sunrise

A good way to start the morning…

Cherry Blossoms and Grizzly Peak

The cherry blossoms have begun to make their appearance. This tree is in the Ashland YMCA parking lot. Grizzly Peak is in the background.

Plum tree in bloom

This was our old plum tree in the peak of its glory. A couple of winters ago we had a huge snow storm that caused such heavy and sticky snow that every branch on this tree broke (as did many in town). It is slowly making a comeback. Perhaps I’ll show some pictures of it in the storm here in this blog this coming winter and then how it looks now next March when it blooms again.

The New Theatre

The New Theatre at Oregon Shakespeare Festival isn’t all that new anymore. I think it has now been around for six years, but it is still called The New Theatre. One of these days someone will buy the naming rights or they will name it after someone I suppose.
