Tulip fields are beautiful in the Skagit Valley, Corona Virus requirements not being honored


Soon peonies will be blooming. This year I must get a coral charm peony. 
They’re absolutely beautiful they turn apricot! 
This pink one is very fragrant though. 

Blossoms
Above are photos of home below tulip fields then my neighbors beautiful trees, shrubs that I thank them for every year when the color pops in spring. 
Flower people are the best people! 
Tulips




Dried hydrangeas grow roots. 
I keep them year round 
I love watching dried flowers rooting in a jar! 
Wash the roots weekly with warm water and freshen their water. 
Further down, my dried peony petals on the bookcase. 
And cut tulips from another year. 
I didn’t get out of my car on this trip except to snap a photo of a few apple blossoms. 
No drive into Laconner either. 
It would have been tempting to eat out but I know I wouldn’t, I don’t want anyone else preparing my food during this viral challenge. 

I have to say that if you’re worried or alone or fearful for yourself, there’s always someone else in worse shape with needs not met. It’s good
To think about them and not panic. 
Military personnel, prisoners, children separated from parents, those dying alone and those caring for them. Think about others. 
I pray it all just goes away now forevermore! 


Peanut the squirrels names, all of them I call Peanut.
They find me now when I’m outside, ..Lined up behind me waiting for their peanut. 
I carry them in my pocket now that the hunter has become the hunted.

Writing, reading, social media, Resurrection, pruning, preparing food, talking with friends and family, wishing everyone a contemplative peaceful time.

Corona Virus has hit the world head on and it's a concern for everyone. We have family and friends we can't see and it's a time to go for peace and not project a bunch of stuff.
Just take it easy.
Listen to Anna RF on YouTube.
My favorite is, Why?

Video in the Alps by these great musicians from Israel. They often record in nature. They live in the desert.
They're my tribe.
I can tell.

I'm communicating with friends around the world. Old and new.
Art is always burgeoning around me.

Watching Resurrection on Netflix. 600 episodes.
A marvel.
Great acting historical, about nomads clearing a path to the state of Turkey.

You can't go back to Hollywood if you were there though. Or foreign for the most part even though I'm a foreign and independent film lover.
This is a new genre in itself.

Seriously Resurrection though, filmed in an exquisite way.
Slow motion. Interesting use of music. People with feelings, Psychos. Lots of sword fights. Weddings. No sex scenes. I'm glad.
So far as psychos I really didn't know they were so common place, but now I know. It's a rude awakening. Trust me.
Liars, manipulators, people who prey on others. People who are truly demented and desperate and can't see it. They do project it in others Creepy people.
This tv series has it all that too, really, stab you in the back characterization. Yes it's out there.

Wise men with beautiful stories and
Calm demeanors. Yes there are those like that too. Yurts, Suzanis, rug makers, you name it. Don't miss this series. Perfect for our time.

Enjoying and seeing life through a different lens. Hoping everyone is.
Calm down. Do what's good. Make your amends. Be honest with yourselves.

Have a restful Easter.

The Cherry tree, Yoshino, I call it cloud blossom as of today. Making sand drawings. Checking out the new growth of spring daily.
