It rained all through the night last night, but started clearing up midmorning. And it was a beautiful afternoon. I spent several afternoons this week cutting daffodils and making bouquets to give away, and today after the rain it seemed there were more than ever in the yard and out in the pasture.
Here’s Moustachio (named so because of his little orange moustache) “helping” me. He’s quite the guard cat, making super sure that nobody makes off with the cut flowers ...
After a while he relaxed and just enjoyed the sunny afternoon ...
After I got a couple of dozen blossoms from the yard, I ventured out into the pasture, where there were hundreds more ...
You may recognize the trees below from the painting “The Last Pecans.” I love these trees. I call them “the three sisters.”
And below is today’s haul, sitting beside the kitchen sink. While I was preparing this photo for posting, I noticed the three cans of Febreze in the background.
In a house with six dogs, Febreze is absolutely essential.
Speaking of dogs, here’s Trixie looking out the window in the breakfast nook where I’m sorting flowers by size and making my bouquets.
A perfect afternoon!
