Beautiful – simply beautiful! Not just your words but the reality behind them. How lovely to have this (as I imagine) at the bottom of your garden path. To walk straight out into fields of lush green in the morning. It looks like the England I love, but you could be anywhere and it wouldn’t make a difference to me, so long as you keep on feeling the love and sending the snaps.
Kindness – Robert (York, England).
Robert, thank you so much for your lovely words this morning. Having grown up in California and then living many years in Boston now that I am settled in New England (New Hampshire,USA) not a morning goes by that I am not grateful to be surround by the nurture of nature and natural beauty. How nice to know on the other side of the Atlantic there is a like minded soul. Kindness back – Catherine
Catherine – you share my sister’s name. Another step closer. So, that really is the view from the bottom of your garden? Wow! You are so fortunate.
Ping pong kindness – Robert. 🙂
Thank you for sharing this delightful view and you always-poignant words ❤
Would you happen to know the identity of the plants with the zig-zag stem and parallel-veined leaves on the righthand side of the picture? I have seen them here forested areas of Michigan and have had more trouble than usual in searching out this plant's identity.
This makes me want to run excitedly out of the gate, then stop abruptly and take a deep breath. Something about this reminds me of that story “The Secret Garden.”

Hi, that is Polygonatum commonly known as Solomon Sea. It is a medicinal herb. A real beauty. Transplants well.
