It should be safe if we don't group and make sure we observe safe distance from others. We have another month of conditional movement restriction order to follow. Gardening is good to keep us from the gloom of being locked down at home.Nancy Chanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10790364807514237397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6940863090367389327.post-37182748139713419772020-05-10T18:39:45.090-07:002020-05-10T18:39:45.090-07:00So sorry to hear that someone took your trellis.

Your post is very picturesque and I can really imagine (and of course you provide wonderful photos that give the picture) the scene with people out at the park, and the surprises at your plot, between the wind blowing seeds over, to the things missing!! Oh dear!! The mood over all though seems joy and thankfulness to be able to return to it and start putting it in order again!! I love sunflowers too and timely that you mention it as they were my Mom's favorite flower. I always get sunflowers if I can on special days to remember her, and today I have two sunflowers in a vase here for Mother's Day!! Blessings to you and take care in good health and may we hear a lot of Good News in the days to come !!♡shayndelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13506811690843992800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6940863090367389327.post-8541519772721773302020-05-09T05:02:37.498-07:002020-05-09T05:02:37.498-07:00I love sunflowers, such happy flowers.

That is not nice! i also love sunflowers...they are happy flowers and the birds love the seeds. vitamin D is very good for us and to help fight all viruses, so I am happy that people are getting outside in the sunshine and enjoying beautiful weather.

Some of them are open here but it is quite hard to stand in line and then once you get inside find out that what you want is not there. Even seeds are hard to come by and I see on line a number of seed places have sold out. All in all, I'll be doing well if I get the gardens in.Joyfulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09956413632864588646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6940863090367389327.post-39296138959036481982020-05-08T21:04:34.247-07:002020-05-08T21:04:34.247-07:00Thank you.

I'm not sure if the parking lots are closed near parks here but the provincial parks run by our provincial government have been closed for quite awhile and not yet open. The city parks are open except for one very large one which the government closed down because too many people go there.Joyfulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09956413632864588646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6940863090367389327.post-32209403350013273162020-05-08T21:02:56.804-07:002020-05-08T21:02:56.804-07:00Yes it always amazes me how cavalier people can be...Yes it always amazes me how cavalier people can be. A lot of people seem to feel invincible until they get sick. Home Depot here has been limiting the number of shoppers who can enter and they've been doing this since the beginning.

I think our lock down has had a tough effect on so many. And My guess is there will be tough times that follow. I am disappointed that fear of death has been really pushed by this. It is part of our time on this planet that death is part of our journey. We are making death seem awful rather than a natural passing on. While loosing loved ones is emotional it is all part of our journey. <br />It is snowing here this afternoon and gardens are way behind. It will be a cool several days.Heidrun Khokhar, KleinsteMottehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16174142810114806410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6940863090367389327.post-53959584243064010552020-05-08T09:42:57.685-07:002020-05-08T09:42:57.685-07:00Such a shame your trellis was taken …

Even though the parking lots are closed (to avoid crowding), many people park on the streets and walk in.
