Inside Out

Although it is an invasive, non-native species, the Himalayan blackberry is mostly tolerated in these parts for the pounds of free, tasty fruit it produces. My brother's wife and I share a passion for 1950's Fire King Ware in this particular green
and for delicious, free blackberries.
While visiting them on the Sunshine Coast
(and taking pictures of everything)
she suggested I experiment with the bowl of fruit in the sunlight.
Voila!

A Splendid Melancoly

Displays of gladioli and dahlias signify summer's last blast of colour and variety in the garden. These flowers grace the Love farmhouse at Burnaby Village Museum
which celebrates its 40th anniversary this year.
Alongside heritage buildings and gardens are the BC Electric Railway exhibit and the CW Parker Carousel both of which are a century old.
These former glories of technology are highly evolved and therefore beautiful and rare.

Succulents
No. 4156 (detail) - 18 Jun 2011 - 17:15:42I live in a rain forest and seldom complain about the weather. I have often mused (this time of year) that, if it is still raining by July, I too may become grumpy but after a spring spent on the prairie flood-plain I am keeping my perspective. I returned to Vancouver in the thrall of a cool and wet early summer and with the natives none too pleased about it and yet the gardens were and are full of flowers and flowering things.
No complaints here.
