Happy Twosday

Whatever way up the 22nd February 2022 is a very special day. A "Once in a lifetime" day and there won't be another one like it for 200 years.

Palindrone Day is when the day’s date can be read the same way forwards or backwards.

I looked out the window to see the moon setting around 8am and took a shot of the golden sky at sundown.

Winter drops at RHS Garden Rosemoor.

Well we've certainly seen some dark and moody times of late so where better to enjoy some vibrant colour on a rainy Winter's day. Gold and crimson hues and a dash of green as the Snowdrops emerge underneath the Dogwood. Leafless but not lifeless, Cornus alba 'Sibrica' sets the scene beside and just beyond the lake. From peaceful Japanese tranquility to hilarious looking spikey haired "Flowerpot Men" a walk around certainly lifts the spirits.
