Field Notes
On gardening, early retirement, and taking root in a Greensboro bungalow.
Sumoing on Elm
Sumo wrestling at Stroll on Elm, a pleasant surprise on a hot Greensboro (first) Saturday.
Unearthing the Wall
Today we unearthed more of what is probably the original low garden wall.
Peeling Back More than Ivy
I started what seemed like a simple project on the north side of the yard, but I didn't expect a bent trowel, a patch of poison ivy, or the discovery of the protected vine zone.
Flittin’ and Sittin’
With catching up on the porch and watching the hummingbirds, staying in place is starting to feel pretty good.
Waiting for Wren
I wanted to capture a photo of my favorite bird buddy this afternoon. He had other plans.
Fox. That’s it, just Fox.
While Fox, our seasoned road-trip veteran, won't be joining the Spain adventure, he's earned his status as a traveling companion (even if he only packs a sweater).
Rock Finding in Gibsonville, NC
Found a cool rock on a walk at my parents’ place. This simple, spontaneous discovery sparked a reflection on life transitions, self-tending, and preparing for what comes next.
