it was gorgeous out yesterday…

sat out on the deck and read for a while and then, when I got too hot (!!!), I worked on the back deck…

moved a few pieces of furniture and swept all the dead cedar and bunny poop off of it, although the tarp is still frozen into the ground in a few places…

before long we will be able to sit out there in the afternoons;-)…

I was just thinking about how great this season is as there are no bugs and about five seconds after that thought, a fly landed on my leg, lol…

critters…

this morning after a hot tub I walked over to the Park, and then around the Gardens…

found a few critters in my travels…

first was a frog in the lily pond… only one I spotted today… there were many open lilies but no other frogs…

took quite a few photos of this cool flower and found this wasp…

the hydrangeas are blooming everywhere and when I took this shot caught a fly in amongst the flowers…

no spiders today;-)…

was outside a while ago looking for wildlife in the garden…

found one of the swallowtail caterpillars and some flowers which should be bringing the butterflies to the garden…

butterfly bush although it isn't the kind I have had previously...

came in the house and discovered a fly in the kitchen which I then had to try to get out of the house…

few minutes later I was in the bathroom and discovered a good sized spider staring at me from on top of the towels…

not so long ago, I would have come running out calling for George at the top of my lungs… so that he could save me and get rid of the spider… I am not fond of spiders at all, lol…

now, I put on those darn big girl pants, find some Kleenex and deal with the intruder all on my own…

George would be proud…
