Philip is a real wise guy, I knew it. Funny, I was just thinking about Aptos and Santa Cruz, Philip, and maybe visiting my bestest friend down there. He’s a teacher at Aptos High. The Bay Area remains my vision of Paradise.

Northern Shade, you’re going to have to give me your name some time. LOL, I spent lots of time looking, too. Do you do that on purpose? I love your blog, particularly your page dealing with your plants. I am also a big perennial lover.

Hi!
Yes, I miss spring and flowers. I am off today in search of some!
Stay warm, dry and safe!
Best regards,
Philip

The frozen waterfall looks beautiful. In Jasper, when the waterfalls freeze solid, you can go ice wall climbing (with climbing gear). However on the roads, ice creates chaos. I hope you don’t have to commute over the next while.

My conifers look pretty when layered with snow, but at – 30 C (-22 F) in Edmonton, I’m doing more of the admiring with my nose pressed against the window pane than outside.

Now that we are at the solstice, your spring blooms are not that far away.
