Garden Warriors – Paper Wasp Squash Bug Terminators

Beauty In The Mid-Columbia

Prosser, Washington Panoramic View at Twilight
I ventured out recently to photograph Pan-Starrs Comet, which was forecasted to appear that evening at twilight, just to the left of where the sun set. I found a nice high spot on a hill above Prosser, Washington which I thought would be a perfect lookout. Well, I never did see that comet. Maybe it […]

Summer Breeze & Busy Bees In The Demonstration Garden
I’m not a master of gardening, but I’ve been participating in the Benton-Franklin Master Gardeners program this year, and I’ve learned so much. Mostly how much there is still to learn. I have really enjoyed photographing at different times the beautiful demonstration garden next to the Mid-Columbia library in Kennewick. All the work is performed […]
Is it Spring Yet?
The holidays are now behind us, and the new year ahead. Spring still feels so far away yet. Will my new goLITE (Christmas present from Hubby) be enough to pull me through the gray and dreary days between me and the brighter days of spring and summer? One of my favorite places to wander locally […]
