Dear Liza,
It was warm and sunny all day yesterday! Grandpa Nelson went to the zoo, I got some ground eggshells worked into the soil in the vegetable garden, and Auntie Bridgett and I went for a walk in Laurelhurst Park.
All our favorite things were there.
Lovely pink magnolias were blooming right over the path, making a fine summery arbor.
A fellow was playing banjo and singing, and lots of folks were enjoying the day.
This sunny and shadowy view of the ravine never gets old.
Even the dandelions are looking good!
On the way home, we ran into this lavender bush that was absolutely alive with bees! Go, bees, go!
And, of course, it’s kitten season. This little guy was pouncing on everything from seeds to bugs to his own shadow, and finally just flumped down on the sidewalk. We are a pretty trio of shadows, aren’t we?
Love,
Grandma Judy
Dear Liza
