Yesterday evening I worked on the jigsaw and again for a little while this morning, soon be finished I think.
The begonia with the large leaves has flowered.
The bonsai trees are about to lose their leaves for this year, hopefully they will survive a Scottish winter.
Went out with Darren this afternoon as he wanted some storage boxes and I wanted canes and a reed screen to make a start on a bee house. Darren got some storage boxes, the best I could get were these bendy canes!
Tina is feeling a bit better so suggested we went out for a bit. We took stools and I had a sketch book, Tina took a book. We went to a loch that is off the beaten track and were there alone. I had been there once before and really liked the little abandoned hut and wanted to draw it. This time I did, it was a lovely evening and I enjoyed sketching and then a short walk along the loch.
Not a bad day by the sounds of it. From puzzling to sketching, with a few bits in between 😊
ReplyDeleteThe puzzle has come on well. You’ll soon be onto the next one.
The leaves on begonias are lovely. Great colours, especially with a bit of sunlight behind them. I do hope you don’t lose any bonsai over the winter. It’ll be a bit colder up there than what they’ve been used to.
That is a big old hedge. Looks like they’ve made a really good job of trimming it. The plants will flourish even more in your room now 😊
I’m looking forward to seeing the bee house once you get all the building materials you need.
Glad to hear Tina is feeling a little better. A bit of fresh air will have done her good. You’re so lucky to be able to go to a place like that and be alone. It’s a great way to spend a bit of the evening. It looks so beautiful in those pics.
I do like the sketch. It looks a great little building.
Hopefully you’ll sleep well tonight to finish off a lovely day.
It was a good day and I forgot to mention having my toe nails cut!
ReplyDeleteGetting my supplies for the bee house is proving harder than I expected, but no real rush.
The loch is very peaceful and nice that it was so quiet. Was happynto be drawing a building, that little hut has character!
