Some nice work and lots of blue sky and sunshine today with my school chum Sue and Miss Denise. I liked Denver’s James LaCasse’s sculpture.
Bummed that I didn’t get the name of this sculptor. But dig this bird in the hand detail!
A few more photos are on my Flickr page and you can take a look at skies around the world at Skywatch Friday.

I spent hours and hours in the garden this weekend. So much work to do and I was trying to make a dent in it before the rain came.
What’s worse? These sneaky devils or crabgrass — the weed from hell? At least I got a good butt toning out of pulling the weeds.
The snails won’t have to wait long for their comeuppance, however. But they’re brave in their spring stupor.
Brave! The Illustration Friday word prompt. Not this Friday’s — last…

You know what? I never watch the Oscars or other award shows either. I’ve determined the thing I dislike most (besides the worthiest film or music or whatever NOT winning) is watching people get so awkwardly emotional and losing their s**t without a script. I guess you could say I only want to see film stars at work, not as real humans. I know, weird.
Voila, the perfect time for Hannah and me to see the current blockbuster was right when the award show started last night! Yeah, I was curious(er) to see how Burton treated Alice but I didn’t want to be disappointed so I didn’t let myself get too excited over seeing it.
There were many cool visual moments for me but I have to say that all I could think about most of the time is one of the reasons MPAA gave the movie a PG rating: “for fantasy action/violence involving scary images and situations, and for a smoking caterpillar.”
Really? A smoking caterpiller? I think that’s hilarious…

…almond blossoms, fluttering down like exquisite, pink-tipped snowflakes.
Spring’s here. I can say spring without jinxing our fair weather — unlike California expat Jill in Provence. You must go see her great blog Le Trip. Terrific vintage French flea finds and posters. She’s giving away a cute vintage school poster on her site. And if you’re planning a trip to France ((sigh)), she’ll show you her secret flea spots. One of Jill’s posts is the reason I stepped outside to photograph these flowers.
