This and That
It was one of those "this and that" weeks.
Heat records have been set all week.
It's not even UGHust!
The last Rice U baseball home series has come and gone.
I found these at the grocery and thought they'd be fun at the tailgate.
They were!

Mother's Day with the Houston Astros at Minute Maid Park.
I do love Orbit and all his shenanigans.
He must be one of the best major league baseball mascots.
Lots blooming in Musashi's Garden.
Coneflower
Miss Amelia Day Lily
Persian Garden Day Lily
Mini Pearl Day Lily
I order all my daylilies from Oakes.
I've been very pleased with the plants and the service.
Wishing YOU well and much joy!

Tra La! It's May!
It's the magical month of May.
I couldn't resist a lovely May Day bouquet.
I couldn't resist a lovely May Day bouquet.
I have several pots of Lantana blooming in
Musashi's Garden.
I hope the butterflies like them as much as I do!
The crocosmia blooming came as a surprise.
I didn't see the plant at all last year.
Yippee!
Another amaryllis is blooming, too.
May also means that I start preparing
for my six month summer hibernation!
I have plenty of yarn for projects.
Never too early to start holiday gifts!
It's already hot and humid.
Smoothies are definitely in order.
It's also time to think about hurricane supplies.
I've started loading up on water
and will think about what canned goods I might like.

Pancakes and Pollinators
Family night at the zoo was filled with
fun and education with
Pancakes and Pollinators.
Long tables were set up showing the importance of
pollinators.

Two of my favorites: Lantana and Lavender.
Kids had fun having their face painted and playing games.
Two beautiful tiger sisters and one handsome brother snake.
Some of the Animal Ambassadors were out and about.
This is an Eastern Screech Owl.
He looks like a tiny tree!
Great camouflage.

Most of the Animal Ambassadors
have been injured in some way
and can not be released into the wild.
The zoo gives these animals a home and uses them for
educational purposes.

Golden Eagle
In some ways, this gentleman is an Animal Ambassador, too.
He is one of the official photographers at the zoo.
We were laughing taking pictures of each other, taking pictures of each other!
Can't leave out a mention of the menu.
Fruit, yogurt, scrambled eggs, pancakes, bacon, potatoes,
chicken nuggets and
shrimp and grits.

Little Things
It's The Little Things like this:
That make things like this ... bearable!
It really hasn't been too bad.
They don't work on the weekend.
Closing off one lane of traffic has made crossing the street easier.
(Always look on the bright side.)
Rebuilding the street will take awhile.
*
I have my pond cleaned once a year.
I try to schedule the cleaning before it gets too hot and humid.
Cody does a fine job.
This year, in addition to my six gold fish,
Cody found eight crawfish.
We have no idea where they came from.
We blame everything "abnormal" on the waters of Hurricane Harvey.
The waterlily isn't the only bloom in the garden.
I save the amaryllis I get at Christmas and put them in the garden.
With a little luck,
a year later,
they bloom again.
Wishing YOU well and much joy!
