More from our stay at home...except for walking...

Mike and I are still staying away from others...Mike has gone to the store a couple of times for essentials. We still go out walking at least once a day and Mike is still playing tennis. We find that we spend most of our day on our sunny deck. The garden has never looked so good and we have been trimming our oak trees. Mike is practicing songs for when we can get together with our friends again. I have been doing some meetings on Zoom with some of my committees and my nature connection friends who are offering webinars and zoom classes.

Those friends are inspiring me to forage

for edible plants and eat something

from my environment every day.

We have oranges and lemons,

parsley, oregano and cilantro,

and tender dandelions which are  

delicious in salads.

 This is one of my favorite "noshing" spots

 on the Moonstone Boardwalk

 Mustard and radish flowers are my favorite

sweet and spicy and crunchy...mmmmm

I sit near the native grinding holes,

a good source of sweet rainwater

if I needed it. 

 I do love this town and its coastline.

 This week we enjoyed an ongoing "chat" at a distance,

with a photographer from Bakersfield,Kevin Roland,

who has photographed wildlife all over the world

and here he has discovered our hummingbirds

 on the Pride of Madeira plants.

Nice additions to my salad....

and very healthy...
