What better way to start the weekend ...

... than a walk on the beach at Belhaven!  A glorious sunny morning and with a selection of members of the family, Tilly and I went for a walk after breakfast.  It was low tide and that meant we could begin our walk by crossing over the bridge to nowhere.  If you get your tide timings all wrong, the bridge is surrounded by water, and its a long walk round! Today we had oodles of time.
The garden this morning was white with frost, and likewise the sand in the shadow of the marram grass, at the top of the beach.  But with some warmth in the sun now, the skylarks were singing of summer, high above the sand dunes  They were the first I have heard this year, and one of my favourite sounds.

Early morning light

There have been some cracking early morning skies this week.  The sunrise has generated a strong rose gold light which has been picked up not only in the clouds but also through the silver-white grasses around the edge of the golf course. I always marvel at the clouds.  Constantly changing, formations that have never been seen before, never to be seen again.  

In a vase on Monday - colour

The intense colours in my vase this week come from nasturtiums, sweetpeas and a single glorious zinnia! Their beauty and love of life speak for themselves and need no further words from me! Enjoy!

(Not) in a vase on Monday!

The challenge this week, set by Cathy at  https://ramblinginthegarden.wordpress.com to celebrate five years of In a Vase on Monday, was to offer (Not) in a vase on Monday!  So here is my interpretation of that idea with one of my Plant Belles, which I tend to use for things I find and enjoy.  I weave bits and pieces through the metal ribs and keep them until they fall apart, or something even better turns up!  Lichen covered twigs, branches of larch with tiny cones, seed heads, twisted heather stems, anything and everything that has form and beauty.
