The first of my royal purple & golden sweet have emerged. I grow the more commonly known green Oregon snow peas too. I love eating - fresh n raw from the garden or cooked.

I have 3 pots of #sorrel #SaladGreens. This is one of them. I started all 3 pots, last June. We've been harvesting from same pots - all through last year to now. They keep coming up, after every harvest. I love eating sorrel - raw or cooked! One of my fave greens to eat.

Picked & to make small for Mom. The roses smell divine!

I got the vase for free. It's part of set of 3 glassblown art vases. Got them from a free pile from local estate clear out, a few years ago. I'm good at scoring lots of & rarely buy anything new.

Walking through #GarryOak #meadows & wetland marshes are to the right. Small #footpath to stroll. Still some purple #camas out.

En route home & will be uploading more photos, shortly. We had the whole park to ourselves - only wildlife sharing spaces today 😊

Some of the we walked on today 😊 It was sure nice to see no other humans in the park. We enjoyed a lot of nature delights, loved all the birds calling & singing, saw a squirrel & muskrat in creek areas & had a lovely time together ❤️

Boardwalk leading out to nature trail. Lots of full foliage trees surrounding.
Small footpath, with trees, shrubs & plants surrounding both sides, leading into natural tunneled trail.

#CowParsnip is the ONLY #Heracleum species that's native to #NorthAmerica. There's many look-a-likes including the very toxic giant hogweed. I don't recommend trying to #forage & harvest them unless you're very experienced with identifying differences because it's dangerous to do so.

I picked some #flowers from our #gardens to make a new #bouquet for my Dad's memorial altar. We are doing his one year passing ceremonies on Sunday afternoon.
