In Nature


The week after Molly died, I felt so sad and angry. I had a week of tests and doctor appointments.

My daughter who lives in Maryland came for long weekend visit.

We had a good pressure free visit. It was the first time she had seen me walk. I ended up over doing it with a walk through Zilker gardens.

I love being outside. As we walked downhill to the Hartman Prehistoric garden in Zilker. (park photo right) http://www.zilkergarden.org/gardens/dino.html



I challenged myself to name the native plants along the path. I did very well. I used to be paid to do that for environmental/habitat studies.
Visiting the gardens reminded me of how little I get outside.

I have a collection of potted plants around the door, my garden, that I like to sit with and visit. I was really excited to see bees the other afternoon.
