The Duirinish Stone was NOT erected thousands of years ago. Set in a concrete base, it stands approximately 5m high and was erected by hand. That is to say it was pulled up the hill and set in place by human power. See the ALT for more information…

A view from the ’Two Churches Walk.near Dunvegan. Healaval Mhor* is the flat topped hill in the distance.
* sometimes called MacLeod’s Table North

“The stone is a commanding viewpoint for Dunvegan village and miles around, but it is not a prehistoric monument. Instead, it was erected on midsummer's day 2000 by the villagers of Dunvegan, using only hand power and ropes. As the stone is fifteen feet high and weighs five tons, this was an impressive feat, and presumably used the same techniques as would have been used to build stone circles thousands of years ago.” I am pleased to be able to go up there every week for the view and the celebration.

This is about the only sign of spring you can expect on March 20th in Durango, Colorado.

Two vibrant purple crocus flowers with yellow-orange stamens are blooming in a garden. The flowers are surrounded by a background of soil and scattered dry leaves.

Blessings of the spring equinox. The world is terrible and yet, She persists.

Purple crocuses pushing up through brown maple leaves. There are tiny beads of rain on the petals. A lichen covered stick is off to the side.

Various kinds and shades of moss grow over and around rocks that have striations. The rocks are wet with rain.

Happy Spring Equinox with fresh Bigberry Manzanita buds. :)

A vertical close-up photo showing a twig of a shrub with light green leaves. At the end of the tip is a cluster of small flower buds in pink and white.

For #spring, my little snowdrop. It glows softly (there's a light in the flower), but its glow is best seen at night. See the second pic for a bit of the glow.

I haven’t shared much about this piece yet - maybe because it’s a little different from my usual embroidery work. But I like how delicate it turned out.

@fiberarts

An artwork of a snowdrop flower in an oval wooden frame. The background is a vibrant green felt, with the flower’s stem and leaves made from soft green fabric and embroidery thread and the bulb from fuzzy felt. The delicate white flower droops slightly. The frame is propped up in a bush, surrounded by small green leaves, with sunlight filtering through the branches in the background.

A close-up of a glowing snowdrop-shaped light embedded in an embroidered artwork. The small white flower emits a soft, warm glow, casting light onto the textured green fabric background. The curved stem and a single leaf are visible in the dim surroundings, and the wooden edge of the frame can be seen on the right side. The lighting emphasizes the gentle illumination and the handcrafted details of the piece.

Happy Spring Equinox from Michigan, lol!

Photo looking up toward a couple snow-covered maple trees. From the birdhouse roof on one tree, you can see we got about 6 inches of precipitation. The heavy, wet snow clings on each individual branch, making the forested scene a twisting mass of white tendrils.

It's the Spring Equinox, the day where we celebrate the music of Jean-Michel Jarre

This is the place to look for that #education article tomorrow… well worth reading. I’ll add the link to my website as well and I’ve already congratulated the author who has the good taste to nail the #springequinox this year for a birthday
So double reasons to celebrate & add the below to the singing…

Thursday March 20:
#springequinox was about 1 hour ago

I’m checking the #weatherreport & tonight is supposed to be the last night of frost for awhile. Already +8°C on the north, shady side of the house

Yesterday was spent sorting delivery of fresh veggies and fruit + translating a text for a Swe net magazine

Today I have curated my website for coming Sunday

Waiting before I go outside to document the state of my garden, making some coffee…
