Deirdre — Will they root in the water? Is this early for you for blooming quince & spirea? Ours are much later — but I think I am growing something a bit different — Spirea douglasii, which is native to our region. Photos have been my main way of documenting things, too. I like being able to zoom into details on the computer. I will continue with the Biotime Log, which has been mostly for brief notations – weather records, new bird & other wildlife sitings, plant changes, etc. But I’d also like to try something more expressive with sketches and other things I notice – and not just of our own backyard, but also of hikes and camping trips. We’ll see how far it goes. Can always pick it up again later.
Hope you are thawing out there back East!

HaHa! I knew you would like that one. We can learn so many things from our cats (and also dogs — I still miss mine)! And the way she stares up at me, daring me to question her choices! Haha!
