Que pasa
There are a number of things happening around here that are taking my time and energy, hence fewer posts. Today is a good day, I am almost caught up to my emails but as I said before I will answer them all eventually. I believe that the longest person waiting has been Don ( and Louise ) since March of 2020. They and a few others ask me from time to time about the final story of our generator. I still plan on doing so. So hang in there folks.
Sent by a friend who was walking her dog on the ice on February 6th. Still ice and snow.
Sent by another friend 11 days later. She sat in the sun on our glider enjoying the almost melted lake.
Looks like our grass will need some work.
This was sent to me by Sequoia’s mom. This was taken five months before the triplets were born. I love the dragonfly and flower colours combined. Neither of us knew we would be getting baby doxies in February of 2021.
I thought this would be my final plumeria this season but I still have three waiting to bloom.
Colin has washed, waxed and polished half of the RV. He better getting going with the rest before it gets too hot.
We have seen some pretty high tides and waves as you can see from this photo, the ocean is very close to touching the netting out front of the RV park. The temps have been hovering around 71F for the past 3 – 4 weeks. Not a problem when it is sunny. Two days ago we got up to 75F but we have not seen the sun for the past 48 hours and are back down to 71F. Hopefully the promised sun and heat will arrive by Monday.
Colin went to pick up the laundry and the girls are keeping watch.
We fertilize every 2 -3 weeks. I mix the combination and Colin pours it on the plants. Ciela has decided that she has to be everywhere that I am.
A huge new hibiscus bloomed today. I almost threw this plant out when we arrived as it was just a few stems with one or two leaves on it but I gave it another chance. Of course the fertilizer did most of the work. I saved a second hibiscus and it is due to bloom within the week. Looking forward to see what colour it will be. I really love this one.
Best shrimp stir fry ever. I am taking a freezer full of shrimp home with us.
There is a nose sticking out of that bundle of blankets.

That hibiscus is beautiful! I would take that home with you. With all your windows it would make a nice houseplant.
We can’t take any plants across either border, even packaged nuts are not allowed. It just isn’t worth the risk of never being able to cross international borders again.
That hibiscus is an award winner and the shrimp stir fry looks yummy 🙂 We have been having great weather in the low 80’s and clear blue skies, although we have had more than the usual windy days but today was perfect!
I can’t believe that you have warmer temps than us. It has been cool winter here.
That hibiscus is beautiful! The size of a dinner plate I love when we get rewarded for our time and effort’s. Your stir fry looks amazing you’re making me hungry lol
I love my hibiscus. Just maybe and I mean maybe I will make the shrimp stir fry for you. It all has to be cooked at the right time based on how big the veggie’s have been cut. But oh so worth it.
That hibiscus bloom is amazing! Would you be able to cross borders with a live plant? Once, 30’ish years ago, my grandma could’ve had the potatoes she was preparing for supper taken away when we were stopped at the border coming back into Canada.
And to echo everyone else, that stir fry does look yummy 🙂
