I'm always disappointed when people don't write anything in their swaps but I know I can always count on good writings from you. And I always enjoy the photos that you send. I hope Eugene is settling down and cleaning up from the ice storms. They are scary and something that you can't really prepare for. Thank you for making my day much brighter on this rainy day!

Comment: Thank you so very much for your warm note sharing your cold/icy weekend and the beautiful bird pictures. Poor cold little creatures! I grew up in MT so can relate to your family in CO. And I've been in the PNW for over 30 years so can relate to dealing with the surprise snow/ice here. We didn't have the ice that you had this time, just a bit of snow and the temps so that the roads were icy in spots. I'm glad that you are thawed out and everything is back to normal. :) Till next time!

Comment: Sorry for the late rating, your card arrived last week and I thought I had done it already. It's always nice to hear from you, so see what you've been upto out in nature. Nice that you can make your own bread that's always a pleasure to eat warm homemade bread :) I wish we had more space, almost every space in the windows are full and now our balcony boxes are going into winter mode. The leaves on the trees have only just started changing here, it feels a bit late, but the weather has also only just changed to be cooler. I need to get out more, and plan to do a walking tour next weekend.

Comment: Hi Rift! Always a pleasure to have you as my partner, as I love your photos and hearing about what is going on your way! Our most recent trip was to the beach in Gulf Shores, AL, so no Grand until next month over Thanksgiving! But she is talking now, so I am very excited to see how she has changed since July! I do remember my folks talking about snipe hunting and thinking it wasn't a real thing & now we know it was! LOL! I love how much you enjoy nature and when you share that with me, I feel like I am along in spirit! All the best! Hugs and Happy Swapping! ;)

Comment: Hi Rift! So happy to have you as my partner, as it does seem like it has been ages since we have visited! The funny thing is that I had you to write to in #360! Your nc is lovely and of course the photos always make me smile! Are you feeling better? Your community garden sounds like it did great this year! We ran into the something, it got so hot that much of it was done - we are getting a few tomatoes and watermelons - we are spoiled though and only like seedless now - oops! The animals are loving what we don't eat! LOL! Do you make salsa with the tomatoes? The hubby has made two batches and so many pickles with the cucumbers - thankfully he has lots of folks he is giving them to, as I can only eat so many! LOL! Loved getting a visit from you and thanks so much for hosting this swap! All the best! Hugs and Happy Swapping! ;)

Comment: Thank you for the beautiful cards! My garden has been so odd this year. My tomatoes have not ripened! I’m usually canning by now. Woodchucks ate my green beans so I replanted those a few weeks ago. They seem to be doing well. Some of my flowers are late to open. August should be an interesting month.

Comment: Thank you for your nice note card with the bee and flower photo. How are the swallows doing? So nice to be able to watch their growth up close. We have swifts here at the moment, I love to see them. On holidays we saw a lot of storks with their babies, 2-3 per nest and each village had a stork nest! Also red kites and hawks. I never heard of Patty Pan before, they look so cute! I wish we had more space to grow things here, the balcony is full!

Comment: Thank you so much for your nice note card ! Crazy to have a note card of your nemesis cat ahah, I love it so much ! I love guinea pigs, I had one called Tibillicoco (I'm wondering how English speaking people can pronounce that lol), but he died a couple days before my 11th birthday and it broke my heart way too much to get another one.. Maybe some day ! Have a great day !

Lovely that you get hummingbirds where you are, I've never seen one. If the nettle is good for you, then you can make a tea? I'm still experimenting from time to time.

I had to double check that you were in the US when you wrote about collecting vegetables in the garden! You definitely have a different climate than where I am! I also get caught up books and cannot do anything until I have finished reading.

I had only been dropped from swaps - even though I met the stated requirements - and I was ready to give up on swap-bot. Then you assigned partners a few months ago and I stayed. Thank you for that! The birds are so lovely. I wish I lived a little closer to mountains so I could take hikes every weekend, too. Happy new year!

You also kept up with the exercises! Good job! I'm glad the suggestion of printing the list was so useful. I did better this month at remembering to look at the list at the beginning of each day which increased my productivity and meant that lots more of the niggling paperwork tasks got done. Happy next two weeks!

I love where on your list you have 10 minute jobs ... I definitely need to do that. To me, mopping the kitchen floor ends up being a HUGE deal and I procrastinate when it reality, it is maybe a 10 minute job (if that!) I guess it's the way you look at it and I do know that I'm gonna look at it as a 10 minute job from now on and have a feeling I'll get it done without procrastinating on it! Have a good day! You got a lot done and should be proud of yourself. 🌹🌹🌹🌹

I am so sorry to read about the fire ash being everywhere and of course the fire effecting folks - such a scary thing, not sure which is worse, fire or water when it comes to loss!

Comment: Hi rift, I don't think you've been 'lazy'! Although you didn't do everything on the list, you need to balance that up against what you've got done in the garden. Although gardening was on your original list, you obviously didn't estimate how long you might need to spend on it each day at this time of year. And well done on the shoulder exercises! I'm glad it's gradually feeling better. Rereading your email, it occurs to me that you might find it useful to print out your list at the beginning of the two week period. If you have to turn on the computer, open the file and look at it, you probably won't on at least some days. But if you have it printed out and laying on your desk or hanging on your fridge or whatever works for you, then getting in the habit of looking at it first thing in the morning might become easier. At least that's my experience -- if I make the list and leave it on the computer, then lots of things get missed; if I print it, I notice what needs doing and accomplish more. Good luck for the next two weeks!

LOL! Sounds like you had a productive green thumb kind of weekend - our weather has been so crazy that the hubby is a bit weary of putting anything other than onions out so far - it snowed on Friday (briefly but still...) and we had a freeze - WTH?? I have heard in our area to wait until after Mother's Day to avoid frost, so we will see! Of course, I have tons of sunflowers that I want to put out this year! LOL! No food for us but the birds love the seeds and I love the flowers - a win-win in my mind! Can you believe Jemma will be 2 months old on the 19th?? She is so dang cute and has some crazy sweet baby hair going! She really rocks the huge bows! LOL! Time is moving along and you really notice it when there are little ones involved!

Comment: Hi Rift! Your spring drawings are great! happy to see some more. Here in Missouri, the daffodils are starting to appear. Next will come the tulips. But we won't plant any annuals in the ground until Mother's Day. I CAN'T WAIT! I have been reading Prevention magazine lately - and Readers Digest hand-me-downs from my mother-in-law. And a catalog for Smithsonian Travels arrived in my mailbox yesterday. But my FAVORITE is Sun Magazine. Hardly anyone knows about it. Not on the newsstands. No advertisements. poetry, fiction, a topic of the month where readers write in. Happy sunny days ahead! Keep drawing!

Comment: It's not everyday you get a vulture in your mailbox and are happy about it!!! Thank you for the vulture card. Here in Maryland we have turkey vultures and short tailed vultures and they are both year round l can watch them on a nearby water tower on cold days sunning themselves with wings spread out to get warm. And yes it is a bit unnerving. Thank you for reading my profile and sending a lovely creepy card.

I bought some acrylic paint over the weekend and started a little watercolor last night to send to a friend. I haven't painted in 5 years, since I closed down my art studio and met my husband. Time to pick it up again! Thanks for the inspiration!

Comment: Thank you for the lovely notecard!! I love nature too, so I totally relate to admiring the beauty. Nothing like being on the lake and seeing the birds in their natural habitat. Canada Geese can get pretty territorial, but we see them by the dozens here in the summer and some don't migrate much at all. But it is more rare to see them during the winter up here. They love being near the water for sure.

Firstly just wanna thank you for writing so much--sometimes I get disappointed with how minimal swaps are, but I really enjoyed reading about your weekend. I have a complete lack of a green thumb so it was nice reading about how much you nurture your part of the community garden! And I had never heard of the Write for Rights campaign--sounds like something a lot of us would be interested in! Stay warm and dry out on that bike path! OH, and ALSO! You have a real talent for photography! I thought those were professional postcards you included! Thanks so much for sharing your work with me. Have a healthy and happy holiday season, and nothing but joy and success in 2022. <3

Did you get to have your fresh salad? The hubby grew lettuce and spinach this year - what a wonderful combo for a salad and fresh beats the grocery any day! Have you gotten cucumbers yet? We have gotten several and some zucchini as well - yippee! So looking forward to fresh tomatoes! It has been unbearably hot here for a week - we need rain so bad - next week it's supposed to cool down and maybe a few showers - we can only hope and pray! If you are over the rain, could you sent some our way? The heat index has been over 100 - not typical here, so... Very thankful for AC! Sending you all the best and keep up your lovely photos, as they are so appreciated! Hugs and Happy Swapping - thank you for hosting as well! ;)

Comment: I hope your leg is totally healed and your back to your normal routine. I don't know how gardens did around here, my flower garden didn't do so well because all it did was rain and no heat to get things going. Think people who had potatoes probably found them rotten or with white spots all over them. It would have been nice to have some warmer weather. I haven't even seen humming birds here this year so I enjoyed seeing your picture and we don't have turkeys. My roses didn't grow either, bad year for gardners.Thank you very much for everything and you will be seeing me again in this swap. Take care and be safe.

Also if I've ever seen a green heron, then I didn't realize it. mom lives in a tiny home on the creek and she sees a few herons all the time. I'll have to keep an eye out. We often attend the UU congregation near us, and she was actually asked to read the part of Heron in the "story for all ages" for this week's service. Just a great coincidence. I'm excited to show her your pictures when I see her!

Comment: Thank you so much for the beautiful photos you shared with me! These are fabulous shots that I would expect to see in a nature magazine and I'm very impressed with them! As many times as I've looked at them, I still can't pick a favorite because I like them all for different reasons: the little butterfly on the blue flower DOES have a cute face! The chipmunk is adorable; I have never seen them in our area, but I have seen a few at a friend's house near Indianapolis. That grey squirrel seems to be showing some attitude! I can almost hear him saying "What are YOU looking at? You want a piece of me? Do ya? Do ya???" The squirrels that visit our yard are the reddish ones, and their attitude is more of "Eeeek! The human is coming! Run for your life!" I love the bird photos too. We occasionally get the Flickers at the feeding station and I think they are gorgeous. And I love when the song sparrows are here! I did not notice the baby turkeys until I read your note and checked again; how cool that you were able to get them in the picture! There used to be a turkey in our part of town that would hang out in a certain area. He was given the name Wilson, and he became a local celebrity, with people reporting his location on facebook and twitter. Thanks again for a great swap! Best wishes to you!

Comment: The TGIF notecard was awesome! The custom made card was very pretty. I like roses in general but especially the peachy orange ones. Something about them just seems happy! I've never seen the summer fashion roses, or any two-colored?! roses. Around here we have the tulip festival just before summer and I enjoy those, and seeing the very different types and colors but have no green thumb. :/ I loved reading about your weekend and the photos just made it all a mini-escape from a very hot, hide in the basement and read, day! Happy summer, and good luck with your veg!

Comment: Hi Rift, I don't know what happened in the post, but your swap, postmarked 28 May, arrived this morning! The photos you sent are absolutely lovely and I'm really enjoying looking at them. I think the best kind of flower pictures are ones that are a kind of portrait -- just as we can have portraits of people or animals that tell us something about that person/creature and its character, a flower portrait does the same. And you've achieved that with some of the pictures -- well done! I hope you enjoy your fennel. I must admit to being a bit lukewarm about it -- we get an organic vegetable box delivered each week and fennel seems to feature quite a lot! I think my favourite way to use it is just to slice it and pan-fry it -- although it does work well raw in salads in smallish quantities. I've got a row of chilli plants (1 each of 9 different varieties) on my study windowsill, and herbs in the back garden, but I'm not trying to grow anything else this year. Thanks for swapping!

Comment: Thank you for the photography ATCs -- they are both lovely pictures. I particularly like the butterfly. I try to take pictures of butterflies and insects but they often disappear before I finish clicking the shutter! The information on the back of your ATC is absolutely fine and correct. I think the way to think about ATCs is that they are miniature works of art -- so just like any other craft or photographic production, only small-size. I'm not very good at the ones that are collage or drawing based, but I like working in this small size with photographs. I'm sending you an invite to the Digital Arts Diva group. There are no swaps up at the moment (several that we're all just finishing and sending) but we'll be putting some more up soon. Many of our swaps are photo based so I think you'll feel at home.

They were adopted. My fave was a long haired tricolor pig. Also many rabbits and a lizard abandoned. Boo! Thanks for the card. Susan (brooklynbunch)

Comment: This was my first venture into something other than a postcard. Based on this swap with you, I'm eager to try some more these. I've heard about the Naomi Klein book but haven't read it. I am old enough to remember Jimmy Carter's speech and his downfall shortly after, and the subsequent opposite, pro-consumerism, get-out-and-shop speech after the 9-11 attacks. Thanks so much for your comments. I agree with them. I also really liked the sunny band you put around the letter, nice touch. It evokes a sense of optimism and hope.

My uncle once layed on a branch in a tree for over 3 hours just to get a picture of a bird that was visiting their back yard. LOL! He succeeded. They had a beautiful 16X20 hanging in their house of that bird. Hugs. Diane

Comment: I'm glad that even in all these stressful situations you're going through, you have things like swap-bot to turn to for therapeutic writing! I've also lost digital files that meant a lot to me and caused me days of crying, weeks of grief, ect... Stuff like that means a lot to us introverts. So I hope the data recovery helps, and even if it doesn't, things will start to feel a little more normal over time as you get back into your groove! I wish you the best!

I've stashed binoculars close to the patio door. So I might've been attracted to this book as well. Thank you for sharing it with me! Happy Swapping and Healthy Eating... Ramya

The handmade envie with the birdie postage stamps, washi tape and handdrawn birds is gorgeous. The goodies are all very much appreciated and will be put to good use :) Thank you for being a great swap partner! Happy swapping! :)

Comment: Thank you for the book idea. I've been reading (listening to) some Terry Pratchett this past year; maybe I'll get to your recommendation soon! And while I haven't selected books intentionally because of their 'banned' status (although I have read many on those lists), maybe I'll give it a try.

Comment: Thanks for the 2 book pages. It's amazing some of the books that have been banned and the reason for them. I am ambivalent about banning books, I'm against it for the most part however I believe there is some information that really should not be that easy to get, such as how to build a bomb or abc's of poison.

I love that movie too - still have a little plastic Falcor that hangs out on my desk with me. :D I read the Neverending Story when I was a lot younger and can't remember many of the differences. I think the movies depart pretty far from the book, but to be perfectly honest, the only thing I remember about the second movie was that it gave me nightmares. XD I hope you enjoy the rest of the book!
Response: Thank you; awesome about your desk Falkor! I def recommend a re-read... I thoroughly enjoyed reading it! Guess I need to look up the 2nd movie.

In fact I only like sarcasm bought from stores in third-world countries so I probably would have hated your US-bought sarcasm as well. F--- would not swap again. // (For anyone reading profile comments who doesn't recognise third-world sarcasm: the previous rating comment is *not* meant seriously.)

They lok so good. Yes we have been eating strawberries. I have some small pea plants that someone gave me so hope that they get bigger. Sounds like you have a real nice garden. Thank you again for the card.

We had these Blue Herrons down at our pond eating our gold fish, my husband told me one a.m. he was going to get him a Blue Herron on this particular day, and so he did. He took it in his arms, and we called the Heron society.... they picked him up, and healed him... and wanted to bring him back to our house... and let him go... OH NO..... we said..... He had a virus, and was sick... but we saved his life, and the life of our fish... I have this great picture of my husbnad holding a blue Herron in his arms in our kitchen in our house....lololol It is great to see the wildlife... Thank you Pat

I've made 4 dolls so far, and have started posting really cute (free) patterns I've found to my blog. I found a SUPER cute octopus pattern, and I can not wait to start making it. I just ordered 17 things of yarn (yikes!) so I'm waiting for them to get here so I can pick the right color for my new octo-friend. Till then, I'm making small plushies to give to the local hospital and church for kids for christmas. It's fun and I can do something helpful with them!

Comment: It's great that you are active in a community garden. We have had quite the opposite weather here though, it got hot and dry fast, so all of our plants are frying in the sun this year, but we had an early spring so we were able to see some pretty blooms early! Loved your photos my favorite was the asters, I think I might have to plant those next year.
Response: Thanks for the heart! We planted that aster plant from a medium sized pot in the middle of the summer, last year, and it bloomed all through to the end of autumn... So don't wait for next year to get those asters!! :)
