Moss On Stones, As A Form Of Plant, Eugene, Oregon
|
|
|
|
Moss decorated a boulder in our side-of-front-path garden. Moss also decorated a fallen concrete bird. A little moss decorated the cracks in a large boulder next to our Monster raised garden. A huge boulder, next to our driveway, was just beginning to be decorated with moss and lichen. Concrete blocks under our red glass recycling bin were gradually being encrusted with moss. Another boulder in our front garden was nestled in leaves and grass. Its surface was slowly being decorated with moss. Moss decorated a smaller boulder in the garden beside our front path. Our raspberry patch was behind a row of concrete blocks that were fully covered in moss.

Rhubarb, Growing, In A Raised Garden Bed, Eugene, Oregon
|
|
|
|
The leaves had opened and the stems had begun to grow. This rhubarb was well on its way to growing for a second year. Our rhubarb plant, growing in one of our rased bed garden boxes, had amost become a tree. The rhubarb plant, in our side yard vegetable raised bed garden, had just started to return. Our rhubarb plant has developed a thick stem and has begun to grow very tall. Sharing the bed with it were three concrete animals. A rhubarb plant was just beginning to re-grow in one of our side yard vegetable raised garden beds. Its leaves and red stems grew barely out of the dirt.

Artificial Pelicans, As As Found Bird Animals
|
|
|
|
A garden alongside Prospect Street had a fake pelican as one of its centerpieces. Here the pelican was flying over yellow flowers. A metal pelican perched on the top of a log in front of a closed fresh fish market in Winchester Bay, Oregon. The bird stood in silhouette and appeared to watch the passersby. A pelican is a sea bird that dives to catch fish. And so is the appropriate symbol for a fish market. Two metal pelicans soared over the front of our "Monster" raised garden bed in the middle of winter. A pair of metal pelicans flew on a bitter cold morning. So cold, that the edges of their wings were frosted white. They flew over fallen rose leaves and alongside a fallen wire fence.

2025 Eugene, Oregon, Yesterday's Snow, As A Weather Event
|
|
|
|
The next day found our front path covered with footprints in yesterday's snow. Grass grew in a crack in our sideyard concrete. The grass appeared healthy despite the snow. Our old hose formed a loop in the upper right in this image. The border stones, that will someday border the garden to the left of our front path, were topped with snow. A blue tarp covered and protected our wooden backyard table. Here, the blue tarp was dusted with snow.

2025 Eugene, Oregon Snow, As A Weather Event
|
|
|
|
The "Snake" raised garden bed, the patio, and the barbecue, were covered with snow. The bridge over the not-yet-dug pond and the backyard generally was covered in snow. The street and the neighborhood generally survived under a thin coat of snow. The front yard "Monster" was also decorated with snow.
