Fogged in -

It was quite a memorable weekend around here.

Saturday morning started like this.

Fog thick as pea soup.

First dogwood blooms opening.

 

Chilly and damp when I stepped out early

 to take these photos.

Muffled sounds in the distance of the

 Saturday traffic going who knows where.

Birds, such as this male Eastern bluebird, seeking an

 early breakfast - love the washed out colors of

 damp feathers through the fog.

More later on how the day progressed.

I'm behind because we were without any power

 for seven hours later that day!!!

Spring weather in the southeast -

When the white fog rolls in and mixes with the blanketing yellow

 pollen, the garden takes on an otherworldly feeling.

Early morning veiled and faded.

Spring can't decide whether to be kind or cruel.

Teased over the weekend with a little of this and a little of that -

mix of fog, rain, clouds, chill, warmth, and late day peeks of sunshine.

Today arrived with a dire forecast which includes the possibility

of severe storm activity including tornadoes!  

The temperature will reach 82F this afternoon and then only dip

 to 67F during the night - not a good sign.

Maybe battening down the hatches today is a good idea - and

 wishing we lived some place else!!!

Faded views from the garden.

Dogwood Time in North Carolina -

My dogwood tree is flowering at last - I really thought it would never happen this year.

I have a busy weekend planned so will see you here next week with more stories from Patagonia.

Enjoy yourselves.

Easter Sunday . . . . . . . . . . .
