Spring duckies

How many of you like ducks? They are my family's favourite creature. I remember driving along on the highway just outside Edmonton, and a family of Mommy and her ducklings decided to go across the highway..everyone in the car yells..oh No! Don't hit the duckies! Luckily it wasn't too busy on the roads and they made it across safely...

They are huddling together for warmth, in the Spring, you can buy them at Dan's Feed Barn in Superior, WI

Our soft Cotton Bedding - come into the store to see our samples. Same soft yellow as the baby ducks. Imagine sinking into a bed made up with these sheets..... To see our Bedding collection, go to: www.brunelli.ca

Paulusma's Greenhouses, Thunder Bay, ON

I was going for a walk today, tromping along in the recent snow that we've had. Has anyone noticed how long it's staying light in the evenings now?

Yes, Summer and Gardening season is coming! And we are kind of happy to see the snow, as we can't garden without water.

Here are some photos from one of my favourite Greenhouses - Paulusma's .

Did I mention I love Kangaroo Paw? A native of Australia, I think, it has flowers that last forever. They are so sculptural and add line and form to an arrangement.

They come in all colours, and you can get the potted plants at Paulusma's. They like to stay dry, so don't over water.

There is always a large selection of tuberous Begonias in every colour.

If you like different plants, go to Paulusma's Greenhouses at 204 Belton Rd. Phone (807)767-7150. Call ahead to check hours.

Play and Giggle, Camellia's, Thunder Bay, On

What do you do when you're fed-up and feeling kind of ...well.....low? You can imagine you are up in the clouds, off to some wonderful vacation.....

Imagine you are flying above the clouds...it's quiet, calm and serene.....

Do what it takes to stop yourself from being angry and upset ...sniff a vanilla leaf..( surprisingly it has no smell)

These are our Lake Superior stones ...for sale at True North Co-op on Algoma St. They are now located in the old Folino's corner grocery store.

Yes, as adults we get bogged down by the details of Life, and dealing with the everyday , so today, play a little, giggle a little........ tell us what you do when you're feeling low....

Camellia's, 30 Hacquoil Rd. Oliver Paipoonge, On ( just outside Thunder Bay)

Summer dreaming, Camellia's, Thunder Bay

I"m dreaming of Summertime - no heavy boots and coats , and green outside...and colour ..lots of it. It's human nature to want what you can't have..I suppose. We should enjoy the moment...and the snow and ice....blah ..blah..blah....
