Pacific NW Plants: Columbia Lily

One of my favorite summer flowers around our house is the Lilium columbianum, or Columbia Lily. It is quite exotic looking compared to other Pacific Northwest plants. This lily is native to North America and grows in open woodlands of the west. It is also known as the Tiger Lily or Oregon Lily.

Pacific NW Plants: Indian Plum

Indian Plum, also known as Oso Berry, is part of the rose family. Scientifically it’s known as Oemleria cerasiformis. I am highlighting this plant because it is always a joy to see its flowers. They are one of the earliest shrubs around our house to bloom. Surely a sign that the loomy, gloomy winter is behind us. However, this year it’s still raining… a lot.

Pacific NW Plants: Canada Thistle

One of the great things about living where we do is we get to enjoy nature’s beauty every day. There are many plants growing wild I’d like to learn more about. In an attempt to do that, I’m going to pick a plant each month in 2017 and write a post about it.

Georgia birthed triplets yesterday. 2 boys & a gir Georgia birthed triplets yesterday. 2 boys & a girl. 💙💙💗 I was there for the delivery and everything seemed to go smoothly. However, this morning Georgia was not well - didn't want to move, didn't want to eat or drink, slight temp. We have never experienced a doe having problems after kidding. The vet came this afternoon and determined it was possibly the beginnings of a uterine infection. She received antibiotics, saline, and vitamin b. Hopefully we will see improvement tomorrow. The 3 kids, though, are spry, spunky, and cute as can be.
Willow 💜 She's looking so good for being the ol Willow 💜 She's looking so good for being the oldest in our herd.

Rumors are we will have some sort of fair this yea Rumors are we will have some sort of fair this year. I'm hopeful our animal-loving kid will be able to show this handsome fella in person. If not, I know she will enjoy the experience of working with him anyway.
