Crystal’s Rhododendrons

There are my own rhododendrons, but also a public rhododendron garden with my name on it. What’s not to love about that?

April Tulips

The tulips took up an unexpected amount of my attention, though so many other things happened.

I am sure I am not writing my first novel the best way. But I am writing it, and so that is a success.

We are keeping our spirits up by celebrating small activities around the house.

Artists can explain things without words, and that allows more people to understand.

Our overnight trip to Walla was too short, but worth it for family.

I have posted a bunch of photos here, but I promise you it’s way less than I usually bring home.

All these little moments and bits of news add up to one big, wonderful life.

Winter lights make the short days easier to take.

We spent the weekend with friends in the Seattle area.
