The money goes to the St. Joseph Hospital Cancer Research Center, part of our local hospital.

The rain had stopped before we left the house, but the sky had that leaden tone so common to winter days in the northwest. The forest along the back side of the lake was lush and verdant. Conifers, [...]]]></description>

At least that&#8217;s one way to look at this Common Filbert, Corylus avellana, blossom. All that feathery red stuff is part of the female flower. Dangling in the background are the long male catkins which soon [...]]]></description>

Maybe I&#8217;ll grab a cup of Tony&#8217;s coffee and sit in the window watching all the fairies and goblins stroll by. This holiday isn&#8217;t just for kids any more. Even older folks get into the spirit of dressing [...]]]></description>

It was the evening of the Birchwood Garden Club July members-only private garden tour, a delightful opportunity to visit four very nice Bellingham gardens.

		<description><![CDATA[Coming up next weekend is the Whatcom Horticultural Society&#8217;s 2010 Tour of Private Gardens. There are five gardens on this year&#8217;s tour. They&#8217;re all different and worth a visit if you&#8217;re in the area and interested in gardening. Since I take care of the WHS website I was on the pre-tour for volunteers yesterday and [...]]]></description>
