time present

"Time present and time past
Are both perhaps present in time future,
And time future contained in time past.
If all time is eternally present
All time is unredeemable."
       -- T.S. Eliot

A day lived in the sun.  The garden is sprouting a rainbow.  Josie, the Monster Pup, makes it a challenge to get much done as she prefers to be in my lap while I'm weeding.  Cute, but also annoying.

Earlier in the day I completed another mosaic panel of the throne.  I am amazed by its development.  The technique is still so new that I'm hesitant, but it progresses.  Impending deadlines help.

When not gardening, cooking, paying bills, or working on my art, I played with my camera. 

I love violets.  They are rich in color, full of vitamin C and lovely on a cake.

Delicate blossoms today, cherry pie in July.  I planted this tree 8 years ago.  It was purchased through a catalog and arrived a week later in the mail.  The little twig of a thing is now a gorgeous 10ft tree.
