Produce pack!
I was thrilled with the contents of my first box from Life Dirt and I’m looking forward to enjoying all the yummy fruits & veg! (Now I just need better fresh produce management... 😬).

@rebmcn Thanks for sharing the link! Now we need a café for Cardigan corgis, which I think are even cuter! But I’m worried about corgis getting too popular, because that can encourage puppy farms and designer dogs, good for a quick buck maybe but not for the dogs or the breed.

Important read: on the state of a recycling program that depends on other countries to take care of our waste. How can we change the emphasis from Recycle to to Reduce? Why Canada’s recycling industry is in crisis mode https://t.co/Tv6KoIyslR

Spring freshet at St George’s First Falls. The sheer volume of water is amazing - powerful and intimidating and strangely compelling.

Renforth lighthouse yesterday. Are the flood waters receding yet?

Tomorrow is the big day 🤗 The Marsh Creek Cleanup will be held tomorrow rain or shine ☔️ ☀️ Registration will begin at 8:30am in the Parkway Mall parking lot near Majors Brook [across from Office Outfitters]. We hope to see everyone there 🗑️

The ferry crossing at Millidgeville. And a duck, looking very content with the expanded river. The rest of us non-ducks are hoping the river will not grow any bigger. #saintjohn #flood #fujixt2

Flooding on Kennebecasis Drive. I watched the duck cross the road to swim on the other side...

Sandbagging the RKYC. Folks doing what they can to protect against the encroaching river, hoping the damage won’t be as bad as last year. #flood #saintjohn #fujixt2

Gifts of nature. We looked and touched, then we left them for someone else to find.

Bearded trees. I think this is “old man’s beard” lichen (?) - it tells us we have good air, so that’s a bonus on yet another dismal wet day.

Construction workers, Chipman Hill. Heading down to uptown Saint John... I love this hilly city!

@_rboyer Yes, rooty trails require fancy footwork... and attentive walking!

[Gillian Barfoot @eyegillian]

In the woods. Enjoying the smell of spring as I walk along forest paths in the rain. #saintjohn #rockwoodpark #spring #fujixt2

Pussywillows. Now I just have to find some cattails, then I’ll be singing all day. 🙂

April showers.
I was so glad to get out into the woods yesterday despite the rain.
