Day 261

Today Kit and I were in Northern Va visiting our best friend Katie for the weekend.

There are rose bushes in front of her apartment.

Later in the day, we went to her in-iaw's house because it was her sister-in-law's birthday. The Trans grow lots of fruits and herbs.

This was growing beside the mint leaves.

Day 244

Today we went to a friend's house for lunch. She has an extensive garden. While I wondered around it, I took photos.

Day 37

Today was a very busy day, which included lunch with Noah, John and Alex at Mom's Siam. I saw these plants outside the restaurant. There is still snow on the ground, so these were in various states of freezing death.

My camera didn't focus on the tip, but I do like that it picked up the veins of the petal.

This is a dead base of the pink flowers.

These are a different pink flower.

John thinks that these plants (which were abundant) are Thai chilies, which is appropriate since Mom's Siam is a Thai restaurant.
