Coffee On Tuesday! #4

Hello everyone and Happy Tuesday! It is a nice mild morning, though cloudy again and a bit on the windy side. If this weather keeps up I should be able to put my geraniums out on the balcony soon. I could put them out there now, but I would likely have to bring them inside, or cover them, on chilly nights.

But I might consider giving it a try this week. Muffin apologizes for not getting her funnies out yesterday, technical difficulties, but she will be back tomorrow.

Another view of our lake.

There was a lady that lived in the apartment next to mine, but she had to move into a nursing home due to memory problems and falling a lot causing broken bones. Anyway, the apartment has been empty for over a month because they have been working on that apartment, renovating it completely. I was quite surprised they did so much work to it since there really was not anything wrong with the place.

But apparently they will be doing that from now on when people move out. I just noticed something this morning as I looked out my window, some of the trees are starting to show some green now. Those little green leaves are growing and soon everything will be nice and green once more. And flowers will be growing and in bloom soon as well.

Always nice to see those tiny green leaves popping out and giving color to the trees once more.

I mentioned before that Forsythia were blooming in one location and yesterday I spotted them in 3 other locations as well. Plus dandelions are now blooming nicely in that new green grass. Yes, I know, a lot of people hate dandelions. I like them. They are beautiful and bright first thing in the spring, and most of the summer too, but spring is there main time. Plus, if you don’t use poisons on your lawn, they are very good to eat.

The whole plant can be eaten, roots, leaves, stems and flowers. It dried properly those roots can make a nice tasting coffee substitute, and very healthy too. But that’s just me. I am rather different. Or ‘strange’, as some people put it. Okay, I admit, sometimes I do things that are rather odd. But sometimes it is necessary to do odd things to get some good pictures. You probably do not want to know some of the things I have done.

Clouds can be so beautiful too.

Kind of scary. Even for me. When I think about what I did, after doing it. I try not to think about it before I do it. Or I might not do it. And that would be no good. Just think of all the pictures I would miss if I thought about things ahead of time. Hmm, the sun is trying to break through the clouds. Actually, it is the clouds that are breaking apart which allows the sun to show through momentarily. Hmm, must be time for more coffee. I hope you all have a wonderful day and God bless!

Steve and Muffin.
