Imagine:
You’re in Bar Harbor. You’re hungry, and you want something nice, but it’s late! What to do?!

Go to the Parrilla at Havana! No reservations required. Great food, excellent Mezcalitas, and they serve Rocky Ground!

These were outside the Tyng/Tate Playground on York Street in Portland. You can find them anywhere! 👀

I bought these beautiful flowers from Broadturn Farm at Smalls in Portland.
They also serve coffee after 3 pm 🤩

Blossom is over around here, except for some English & French varieties.

Interestingly two of the wild apples I pick are at peak bloom. First picture is Deadhead’s Delight, whick has a bit of a hawkeye/red delicious thing going on. The other (2nd pic) is Iron Spike, an intensely flavored, short stemmed crab. Who’s gonna cross pollinate them?

Lucia came up with a new hairdo! requires a rosa rugosa stem.
