Our final spiky Tuesday
I went out to drop off a package at FedEx and took a camera. Marilyn hasn’t been getting out much unless you count visiting the doctor and tests, so I feel an obligation to always have a camera with me.
It was coincidental but has a lot to do with fences and a general pointedness that’s part early spring in New England. Everything is poking up, but no leaves are out so everything is poky, pointy, and spiky.
Marilyn, having squared my pictures, has deemed this the right pictures du jour.

Great photos Garry. Hope the weather turns nicer and Marilyn can get out and enjoy it.

It’s supposed to be warmer by the end of the week. Got the tick collars on the dogs last night and need to deal with the ANTS in the KITCHEN. I hate those damned ants!

We’ve had a few ants but not the big on-slot as yet. I heard that peppermint is a good deterrent.

Boric acid. Turns out, REALLY works well and the dogs don’t find it interesting.

I’ve found that too. When they do go for that liquid Boric acid they line up for it and take it back to the nest.

Leslie, I saw a lone ant slowly moving across the kitchen floor last night. I guess he was on recon patrol. His gang will never get the intell.

They’re tracking for the good stuff. Do you have any honey or molasses?

Leslie, ditto about the weather. It’s so hum-drum. Today it’s dreary and overcast. Haven’t been out yet so I don’t know about the temp. How’s your weather, Leslie?

We woke up to snow on the ground. The sun is out now and it’s 4’C/38’F. so it’s melting.

Sending hugs to Marilyn, and a round of applause to you both for the squareness of the photos and the spikiness of the shots! A wonderful collection Garry

I thought he did pretty well, especially because he had no idea what the challenge was. Those were just the pictures he took.

Thanks, Becky. It wasn’t the best day for a shoot. But I tried. Spikiness?? Okay!

Taking part is what counts and you didn’t even know about spikes so certainly deserve the applause 😊

I noticed Marilyn is not so active. Hope she is OK

She has been busy with doctor appointments. March is my month of medical. Every year. This year, it’s going to run on into April but I’m hoping by the middle of next month, I’ll have a little breathing room. It seems I had all my surgeries in March, so I have all my follow-ups and test in March. It has become an annual MARATHON!

I tried to whip up some magic — but it wasn’t a magical day. Not even close. I shot the boats with “Key Largo” and Bogie in mind. A guy came by and asked what I was doing. I mumbled something about “I’m trying to find Johnny Rocco’s boat. He’s gotta get to Cuba, quick”. The guy looked at me, obviously wondering about my sanity.
