the way I see the world
On March 12, 2019, I posted two images of an unidentified plant.
Today, March 14, 2023, I finally figured it out (thank you, Google Images!). It only took me four years. Heh.
… and yet here I am, posting a photo of one. Go figure!
I continue load images into Lightroom after doing something that caused them all to have to reload. I’m not sure what I did, but there you go … it’s taking a lot of time, but as they load I do get to revisit places I’ve visited, and photos I took. Including this one. The ant gives you an idea of the size of these small catmint flowers.
Wishing all who are in California a SAFE day, as we deal with yet more weather. I just may stay inside the whole day. Could even clean the house.
Miracles ARE possible, after all.

I have always loved rain. I’m grateful for it as well: having been through a number of droughts I suppose I’m doubly grateful! And when it rains what better thing to do than go over past years of photos, right?
Okay, I could be cleaning the house, which is so needed. I could be practicing (also so needed). But still these photos just call out to me.
I was surprised to go over 2014 and find some little treasures. I think this is one of them. Odds are I will crop this a wee bit: the flower on the bottom right is trouble me. But for now here is the image in its entirety.
