... while out with the dog.

The dark wedge-shaped area to the left of the tree is the shadow cast by Mt Hood.

I'm a proud supporter of #TheColumbian's #CommunityFundedJournalism Program.

They hosted a really nice event yesterday. Here's one of the special projects the staff worked on.

Happy #FibonacciDay

Nov 23 or 11.23 is #FibonacciSequenceDay.

Several years ago I saw a group of #Dunlin in a nearly perfect #FibonacciSequence. They were missing the first single bird, but 1 - 2 - 3 - 5 - 8 - 13 proves that #FibonacciNumbers are found everywhere in nature ;)

#ThePromiseOfSpring

I was raking leaves #todayinthebackyard & was surprised to see the #daffodils have sprouted! Wonder what that means?!

Other normal promises that Spring will be here in a few months:buds on the #rhododendron, #camellia, & #treepeony.

I’m still trying to figure out how I didn’t notice all the #fallcolor last year! Maybe the trauma of moving? 🤪

This is #CrapeMyrtle 'Sioux', down at the bottom one of the #EncoreAzaleas

#HydrangeaLove.

I know the Pac-Man critter is yellow, but everytime I look at the #BlueAniseSage that's what I think of.
