More signs of spring today. I saw two rough skinned newts crossing the trail out at McLane this morning.

Today was peak spring: sun, serenity, and a stroll down Percival Landing. My son continues to reveal he’s inherited my taste for the slightly macabre; we both fell for the thought provoking statue of someone dramatically escaping their chains—and presumably their inner demons. Nothing says family bonding like a shared appreciation for existential liberation in bronze. An incredible piece by Nathan Aoble.

Photography I started planting a few bags daffodil bulbs each year… now there’s a whole trail of them blooming on my land 🌼

Not sure who needs this today, but here’s a little moment of beauty.

It started simple—a handful of bulbs, nothing fancy—returnsome digging, and the hope that something lovely would come back in the spring. I kept at it, year after year. There was no big plan, just a quiet ritual. Many here in Olympia are master gardeners. I am not. This was luck:)

Now, this winding trail of daffodils pops up like a celebration every spring. They're bright, defiant, and joyful, whispering, “Hey… you made something beautiful.”

Anyway. Just wanted to share this tiny triumph of nature doing her thing. Slow and steady.

Hope it brings you a little lift today.
