A Jungle Garden Stroll
Fortification
Some of the Comox Valley Hittys came over. The visit started with chocolate-covered blueberries…
.
.
Marching
…after which several of the Hittys went off to play volleyball while Elsatuna and Henrietta strolled off to examine the garden jungle!
.
.
Peony
The little red fronds reaching up are going to be peonies!
.
.
Calla Lilies
Elsatuna was very brave and climbed up a giant Calla Lily…
.
.
Scilla
…and then she found a little blue Scilla just poking its head up out of the dirt!
.
.
Jack Frost
The girls both sat in the pretty Jack Frost Brunnera flowers…
.
.
Alium
…and they sniffed the Allium to see if it smelled like onions (it didn’t).
.
.
Wildlife
The jungle wildlife was a little alarming…
.
.
Lamb’s Ears
…and so the girls lay down to recover in the softest leaves in the world!!!

Quimper Hittys 
Love that last shot of the girls lounging on the stachys to cloud-watch!
They loved it too! cloud-watching is a favourite activity around here when the weather warms up a bit!
How fun to have a jaunt with some Comox Valley gals. Their adventure seemed full of youthful merriment.
It was fun! We are so glad they live nearer-by now, and we don’t have to wait for months between visits! The Hittys are always happy to see their jolly cousins, and soon the humans might be able to even give each other hugs again!
Starting the day off with chocolate is a wonderful beginning to any day. The stroll in the garden was delightful. I could almost smell the fragrance of Spring in the air.
I certainly agree about the chocolate – and, why, chocolate-covered blueberries are practically healthy! Spring is definitely in the air, but the day has ended up very blustery, so we didn’t spend a lot of time outside in it!
quite an adventure. so much to see and smell . The resident wildlife is looking quite sleek.
Our little black panther is quite sleek, companionable and elegant…she loves the spring too, but is not very fond of her new collar and bell!
What a delightful time for the Young One and her companions. And, how special to have them living closer to you- that really matters in these challenging times!
Your hand-carved Hitty dolls are fabulous! (I say that after having looked at most of their biographies.) Their faces are amazing. I love how you put them in environments, take photos, and tell stories.
Thanks very much Nancy, I am glad they amuse you! I enjoy carving and playing with them!
