I love being out on the water in Alaska. You always see something amazing!

A Ghost plant surrounded by other colorful succulents. There are several flower stems extending forward with dozens of tiny star shaped flowers. They're white with yellow centers.

I look forward to the tiny star-shaped flowers of this purple Ghost plant every year. Graptopetalum paraguayense. 🌱⭐️

Labor Day?

A growing group of Aloe nobilis rosettes. The leaves are short and thick with tiny white thorns on the margins.

After nearly three years, the small Aloe nobilis I planted has successfully taken over the small mound I created for it. Love the dark green color and dense group of rosettes. 🌱

She Did Remarkable Things All in a Day’s Work - Lynette M. Burrows American history hasn’t been kind to women, less so to Black women. Learn about the remarkable Rebecca Lee Crumpler, the first Black female medical doctor.

On this day March 1, in 1864, Rebecca Lee Crumpler became the first Black woman to earn a medical degree in the US. #otd #blackhistory

Posting a teddy bear sunflower from last summer, just so my only post for the day isn’t me complaining about not getting my local phish shows. 😆 #bloomscrolling #gardening

Desejo a todos uma boa tarde de segunda-feira e ótimo começo de semana.🙏

Dubious about using AI for things like this. Some folk just too dumb.

Good Grief

It looks cheery, and the darker green will give it strength.

I have a birthday coming up, been thinking about some fancy shoes myself.

I do. My 4th Great grandfather, a VT politician cautioned against joining the Union.

I feel ya man.
