Lost in a haze of foggy days
and battling the elements,
February just vanished.
3rd day of the 3rd month
March!
Seagulls. The colder it gets, the livelier they become!
The thunder cloud [and birds]
A foggy morning
A full moon
Painting the hills gold
I never dreamed I’d see my favorite tiny purples in my backyard with anemones too!
…picked from my garden!

Beautiful photos, Marina! This is the day our beloved pup left our world. Sigh. Anyway, I’m sorry I missed this! xoxoxoxo
I remember and I still can’t believe it. But he’s always with you.
Thank you, my dearest Lauren. Sending extra hugs and love your way.
xoxoxoxoxo
Time doesn’t stop no matter what happens, and you’re right, he will always be with us. Hugs and love to you too! ❤️😘🤗🌷
🌸💗🤗😘💗🌸
Really beautiful pictures.
Thank you, my friend! 🙏
I am way, way, way, late arriving on your March Post Marina…. Happy March my friend.. And LOVE your garden flowers and views… Sending big hugs and much love…. xx ❤
You think you’re late….!!!! 🤣😂 My days simply zap away! I hope you had a beautiful March and are already enjoying a colorful April! Big hugs back to you, with love xoxoxoxo
Time is literally speeding up… Likewise dear Marina… March flew, April will fly, but we will touch down now and again as we watch the world spin… As we take a breath to pause 🙂
Much love my friend xx EnJOY your zap away days ❤ xxx ❤
We are fortunate having the earth to work and walk on for a breath and a pause. I am realizing that every day.
So, fly or zap, we’ll ‘touch down’! 😉
Sending love and many hugs! xoxoxoxoxoxoxo
I totally agree Marina…. Keep flexing your wings… 🙂 ❤ xx
Ah, yes! xoxoxoxoxoxoxo
Thanks for this marvelous post, Marina. The photos are wonderfully moody, and then the sparkling colors of the flowers. A rocky March? Sigh… The whole year has been rocky. Wishing you blue skies. Hugs.
Hi Teagan! A month late… March went in a zap! Indeed the whole year has been rocky! Thank you so much! Wishing you wonderful days ahead! Many hugs! xo
I felt spring jump out from your post and said, I have come back, Marina. The earth has awakened and it is time to celebrate a new season!!! Welcome March!!! We are glad that you arrived.
Ah, so nice to hear, Rebecca! I’ve also been offline for sometime. March came and left so fast and here we are, in April with color everywhere! Many hugs your way!
Dahling,
I was just about to say, Happy February! Where did January go?
Now, it’s March.
Love your almost spring pics, and the flowers are best!
Much love, many hugs and a box of sponges!
xoxoxoxoxoxoxo
Dahlin Resa, days just fly by! I have no idea where days go! Hours are not enough!
March indeed!
Almost spring and I hope we don’t get any more sudden frost.
Thank you, my sweet friend.
Love, love, love, many many hugs and kisses
and extra slobberies from you know who!

I know that grey February is my birth month but March always feels like a release! Look! Flowers! 🤗🥂🌞
Not to brag about it, but it’s my birth month, spring! 😉 Joking of course. Every month has its beauties. Brave flowers they are too as it’s still cold!
🙏💐😊
So, we’re sort of related? 🤗😉
More so with hubby who’s on the last day of February! 😉

Yay! Love seeing your gorgeous photos and that video was fun, too.
February flew by, didn’t it? It doesn’t usually.
Your bouquet is lovely and what a wonderful thing to be able to pick them from your backyard!
And, that thundercloud looks like an elephant that is smoking!
Wonderful. So glad to see you posting, Miss!
I’m getting worse, aren’t I?! Took two days to get to reply! What’s happened to the hours of the day?!!!! Definitely flew by.
It’s lovely walking outside and getting flowers. The other day we went out with mom and picked ‘horta’ [leafy greens… I don’t know the english version!], boiled them and yum yum!
You’re right about the elephant smoking!
Thank you, chérie!
Sending lots of love and hugs xoxoxo
Oh stop it! I’m just glad you posted!
I bet it was. Awww… I love that you went “dandelion” (or in the family of) horta picking with your mama.
Right? First thing I saw!
Receiving and replying! xoxoxoxo
Them horta were really yummy! 😋
…and hugs multiplied!
xoxoxoxoxoxoxo
I don’t doubt that for a second!
Ooohhhh
xoxoxoxoxo
Happy March! Thank you for sharing the stunning landscape where you live. The seagull video was mesmerizing!
Thank you, my dear Liz. So glad you enjoyed. I love listening to the seagulls and they visit quite often lately.
You’re welcome, Marina.
🙏😘
Happy March. Beautiful photos. Great video of the clouds and seagulls. We have seagulls up here, and it is so strange to see seagulls in the desert. The crows fight with the seagulls.
Ah, maybe that’s why we don’t have crows here… It’s the only downside. No crows and I love crows!
Thank you, Tim!
Cuold be.
Happy March, Marina. Wishing you and yours all the best for this month. You have quite the view, which I’m sure you greatly appreciate with each glance. Spring has sprung for you – so enjoy the spring preceding the summer heat. Yamas!
Hi, Frank! Thank you, my friend. Cold keeps coming back, as well as very strong winds, so spring is shy yet, but we do get brave flowers blooming.
All the best to you too and loved ones. It’s a shame we hadn’t moved in here when you visited! Yamas!
3/3! Talk about good timing. Happy third month to you. Beautiful photos!!! I even liked the seagulls squawking!
Only 2 days delay! Happy third, my friend! Thank you. Seagulls squawking range from adorable to very funny, glad you enjoyed.
