debf56.bsky.social @debf56.bsky.social · 7hGorgeous! We had frost on rooftops here today, so it's time to dig them out. I will miss them. My John Meggos bloomed, so I'm happy. 120
debf56.bsky.social @debf56.bsky.social · 11/09/2026Today’s harvest. Got my potatoes dug and cleaned, garlic is done, grapes for jelly. 150
debf56.bsky.social @debf56.bsky.social · 10/09/2026The Mighty Fraser River in British Columbia. My family has lived near it for over 125 years. Sometimes it's calm, sometimes it's a monster, but it's always beautiful. 040
debf56.bsky.social @debf56.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Flood Falls, Hope, B.C. When it roars, it roars. Ice climbers like it in the winter! 092
debf56.bsky.social @debf56.bsky.social · 28/08/2026We’re having a lovely and much needed rain. I browsed my dahlias and I feel rich! 010
debf56.bsky.social @debf56.bsky.social · 15/08/2026Morning harvest. I have a Gravenstein tree that I love so much! Those apples make amazing pie. 3102
debf56.bsky.social @debf56.bsky.social · 15/08/2026We're getting hit on all sides by wildfire smoke. It's oppressive for sure. Kind of like living in a Stephen King novel, just waiting for monsters to shamble out of the stink. Grateful that it's smoke and not fire, but at this point, fire seems inevitable. 010
debf56.bsky.social @debf56.bsky.social · 12/08/2026I never plant sunflowers because they re-seed themselves so well. This is obviously a cross between a teddy bear suflower and a red one. It's so pretty! I'll save seed from this one, but may never see one like it again. 020
debf56.bsky.social @debf56.bsky.social · 06/08/2026Lily went to the vet today because she has a small lump on her back. To add insult to injury - it’s a fat lump. Rude. 160
debf56.bsky.social @debf56.bsky.social · 04/08/2026This is us today. There are mountains behind that wall of smoke. 041
debf56.bsky.social @debf56.bsky.social · 31/07/2026We’re surrounded by fires. The smoke in this photo is funneling up through the Skagit Valley from Washington State. Fire and smoke don’t recognize borders. 020
debf56.bsky.social @debf56.bsky.social · 21/07/2026The real ones are spectacular enough. AI is so unnecessary. 1111
debf56.bsky.social @debf56.bsky.social · 16/07/2026This is us this morning. It will get much worse as the day goes on. We get smoke from the Fraser canyon and it funnels up through the Skagit valley. Now there’s a closer fire on the Coquihalla highway. Just a normal summer here. 010
debf56.bsky.social @debf56.bsky.social · 15/07/2026Lily is diabetic and requires an occasional bath to help her son issues. We both survived today. 030
debf56.bsky.social @debf56.bsky.social · 07/07/2026I never plant sunflowers because they are prolific at volunteering. This one is so unusual - but if I saved seed, it wouldn't be the same next year. So pretty, right? 040
debf56.bsky.social @debf56.bsky.social · 03/07/2026My garden is doing well, in spite of cool weather and my inability to pull volunteers! 020
debf56.bsky.social @debf56.bsky.social · 26/06/2026Lily was NOT found in the trash. She was found under a car. 230
debf56.bsky.social @debf56.bsky.social · 19/06/2026My grandson graduates from high school tomorrow. He wants to go into culinary arts. I made him a cake! 180
debf56.bsky.social @debf56.bsky.social · 07/06/2026This is 1/4 of my garden. Mostly potatoes and dahlias, marigolds on the edge. Lots of volunteer cosmos, nasturtiums and dill. I never plant those - or sunflowers. Lots of those, too. 020
debf56.bsky.social @debf56.bsky.social · 31/05/2026Mother’s Day gift from youngest daughter. She knows me so well! 010
debf56.bsky.social @debf56.bsky.social · 30/05/2026Iconic Monkey has dropped out of the Freedom 250 concert. Odd, because he has no scruples. 020
debf56.bsky.social @debf56.bsky.social · 28/05/2026I bought this peony at a thrift shop last year, not knowing what colour it was. Isn’t it pretty? 030
debf56.bsky.social @debf56.bsky.social · 19/05/2026Those are great, but this is still my favourite! 031
debf56.bsky.social @debf56.bsky.social · 13/05/2026Lecistic blackbird in my yard - in B.C. Not a great photo, but still so cool. 0140
debf56.bsky.social @debf56.bsky.social · 13/05/2026Leucistic blackbird in my yard. Not a great photo but so cool! 130
debf56.bsky.social @debf56.bsky.social · 05/05/2026We had one of these guys in our yard today. Not my picture, I wasn't fast enough. A leucistic blackbird! 020
debf56.bsky.social @debf56.bsky.social · 30/04/2026Look at this beauty! One of several we have; first one to bloom. 130
debf56.bsky.social @debf56.bsky.social · 08/03/2026Finished. Found a mistake. Don’t care. Well - I DO care but not enough to frog back? 210
debf56.bsky.social @debf56.bsky.social · 10/01/2026I turned 70 this week - my four kids went to your website and each chose a print for me! I was stunned - they are all gorgeous, and each one is a reflection of the person who chose it. So excited! 130
debf56.bsky.social @debf56.bsky.social · 27/12/2025Taking over a whole sofa. Lily's social battery is dead, but at least that dog went home. 030
