My Dad was in a nursing home for a couple of months before he passed away. He needed constant care at that point, something my sister or myself weren't equipped to do. They are sad places. Rupert, I hope you and your old friend can share some last good moments despite the surroundings.
Wildflowers, a heron, cows munching away on some fine looking green grass.....none of that here! I haven't shown my Lumix much love lately but I just took a few shots around the yard after cleaning up last night's 9 inches of snow. It's warm this afternoon, the first time in about 6 weeks we have been above the freezing point!
This is the only "green" you see around here. My Deere 1028E has seen a lot of use this year!
The backyard and garage. It will be a long time before I'll be planting a garden this year! Snow is about waist deep and we've missed the worse of it!
