A Day With Mom
Aren’t Moms great? When I come into town, my Mom showers me with gifts, as if she doesn’t see me three or four times a year. We are all gathering for a very special event, a family wedding, our very favorite kind of party.
Last night, she had a big jar of cranberry juice, a fresh maple bar and a bouquet of irises (just so you will know, they are my favorite flower) with a vase for my hotel room:
I planted some geraniums for her today, and then we picked up lunch from Ivar’s and drove to the beach for a picnic:
It is a gorgeous day at the beach, full of families and sun-worshippers. Seattle had their last snow in April, and is still thawing out from a long winter:
We had some local residents who found us fascinating, and hoped we would share our lunch with them:
We had some chips – they can catch them in their beaks. Bit healthy looking seagulls, aren’t they? 🙂

Looks very nice:)
Lovely :]
Purg – I hope you get here one day. I think you will like Seattle.
Thank you, 3baid! It’s a gorgeous spring day today, temperatures in the 80’s – like Kuwait in Spring. Everyone is buying flowers to put in the yards. It’s a great time of the year to be here.
dont underestimate those things. they WILL attack if they think u have food! squirrels too.
Have you ever watched the old Alfred Hitchcock movie called The Birds, Mrm? I am not a great fan of old movies, but that one is still very very scary. He was a master of SCARE!
I miss the States.. those are nice pictures, and nice choice of flowers too 😉
yes i have i actually have hitchcocks entire collection, but i love birds. u shall see a bird story sooner or later on my blog, along with the promised room post 🙂
Thank you, Ansam. Seattle is showing off for me this week. We have had hot, summary temperatures, and people are worried about avalanches, as the snow pack is melting rapidly.
I am waiting, Mrm!
