I spent the morning today at the Portland Japanese Garden which is the largest and most authentic Japanese Garden outside of Japan!! I love this place!! The Plum trees are coming into bloom and the Japanese maples beginning to leaf out. Thought you might like to see this magical place during it’s peak in springtime! This first shot of Mt. Hood (Mount Saint Helens is just out of sight to the left was taken about 3 miles from our house
Have a great weekend everyone..Hugs, Sandra

Hi Sandra!
I love all of the pics, especially the one with the bee. I love the super up close pic’s, especially of bee’s! I have been able to catch a few in my back yard on my lemon tree, but I know how hard it is to catch them in a nice clear shot! Keep posting, and sending out your emails!
HEY SHERRIE AND AMIEE!!! So good to hear from you both!!!! Oh yes this weather is heaven isn’t it Sherrie!!!! It’s about time!!! I was starting to grow moss on my north side!!!!
I love the bees too Amiee. It’s good to see them come back . We have seen numbers decline the past few years which makes me a bit nervous!! I also released a carton of ladybugs tonite!!! They were like kids in a candy store in my garden!!!
Have a super week both of ya!!!
HI!
Love to see your pictures, I don’t think we’re ever going to get spring here. Would you beleive we woke up Sat. to a dusting of snow on everything?!! I sent your bee picture on to my beekeeper dad.
Hey Cathy!!! Ohhh your dad is a beekeeper??? My son did that at a nature center in Bloomington for a couple of summers. I love bees!!!!!!! Hope your weather warms up soon. It’s raining here again today so I’m staying inside and creating !!
