Welcome, May! May arrived with warmer weather and gentle breezes. The day was lovely. The high point for me was having lunch on the dock by the water- writing and reading and listening to the birds. Heavenly. Later, the girls and I put the new prayer flags on our special Maple tree. They look so bright and festive.

Here are some lovely violets that are growing in the woods by the Maple Tree.

I just love the collection of river pebbles that hubby brought back from his kayaking/rafting trip. So many different colors! They seem to tell a wonderful story- I can almost understand them.

A pretty, glittering beetle we found a week or so ago. It is a
Golden Buprestid, Buprestis aurulenta which is a wood eater that can live up to 60 years in lumber!
Happy May to you all!
