The other day I went to one of my favorite places in the local mountains. I could see from home that the mountains were in the clouds. When I got there and throughout the rest of the afternoon I wandered through the misty forests of Palomar Mountain. What a treat! It was one of those days when you feel in sync and one moment flows to the next with ease.

During the month of May, I purchased milkweed to attract monarch butterfly caterpillars and they came! I have enjoyed watching them and reflecting on their amazing metamorphosis. I was just reading how their body dissolves inside the chrysalis as the transformation occurs. Unfortunately I haven’t been able to capture the change …yet. Here are some of the flowers, caterpillars, and other critters from my garden.
