Mood Adjustments

Friday, June 23, 2023

The header is a skyward image from my barn. Some enjoyable aspects of a little unkept property are wildflowers. No need to go searching for them, although I frequently do. My late afternoon walks with Chase and Mitzvah provide my mood adjustments. While the dogs are romping, I am studying wildflowers, their types, names, and soil preferences.

I have an iPhone app that’s named “Picture This.” When I photograph a plant, the app provides information about it. It says the flowers in my header photo are Sulphurflower Buckwheat, super-easy to take care of, and perfect for gardeners with brown thumbs. Annually, these grow wild on my place, pepping up space that otherwise isn’t much interesting.

Before I start preparing to go to work, here’s another skyward look from my barn. Now, about trees and cheatgrass, without flowers.

Dear Friends: Have a great day. Diana
