Hi everyone, long time, no see! I really don't know where the time has gone - it seems like only last week I turned the calendar over to March!
Speaking of calendars here is my calendar for the coming month.
It includes a Spike Milligan poem which my boys used to love and I am entering it for Erika and Valerie's 'Poetry' theme at Art Journal Journey
You may notice that some of my squares are missing - yes, we are off to France again! I will be taking the squares with me to fill in while we are away - as well as making a travel journal!
Here are last month's pages if you are interested. I have started new meds which at the moment are making very little difference - the dose doubles while we are away so hope there are no fireworks!!!We have both had quite a few things to deal with during April.
This morning on our way to shop we called in to Tatton Park for walk in the sunshine.
This amazing Wisteria wall is right by the garden entranceIt is so calm in this tropical house and I had it to my self after the lady who encouraged me to take a selfie, as she had just done, had left.
..... one of the many Shaun The Sheep figures that are all around the garden.Hubby trying to keep out of the sun!
The handkerchief tree is in full bloom - waving it's hankies in the gentle breeze
A quick long distance look at the Chinese garden
Hubby had an Americano too, with a Pistachio Croissant while had a plain croissant with butter and a little jam.

What a beautiful post! Chris. I sure hope your medication works out for you. Best wishes and aloha
What a beautiful area. Love the Shaun the Sheep statues! I chuckled as soon as I saw the first one.
I hope they can get your meds straightened out. Enjoy your trip!! :)
You had a wonderful walk again! Thanks for linking your calendar journal to our challenge at AJJ! Hugs, Valerie
Have a great time in France without worries or concern about the new meds.
best, mae at maefood.blogspot.com
Tatton Park is looking amazing - that wisteria wall - WOW! Love all the Shaun the Sheep!
Have a good trip to France if I don't get back here before you go, and I hope the meds are good to you! Helen xx
I am loving your calendar Chris. The background is pretty, and I like how it isn't as neat in the middle. That really adds a lot of depth. And wow. Those spring blooms are gorgeous. And the lawn is so smooth and lovely. (Mine is rather a mess right now so I'm noticing lawns.) And the sheep are fun. I hope you had a great T day and trip to France too. hugs-Erika
I love going to France with you. Can't wait to see you pictures. Lovely garden and the Shaun the sheep sculptures are so fun. Happy T Day
Sorry to be late visiting, but when my dear friend called in a panic asking for my help, "real" life took precedence over computer life.
Lovely calendar pages. You always put mine to shame. I'm in awe that you are going back to France again soon.
Lovely views of Tatton Park. Spring has truly arrived there. Loved the selfie you took in the tropical house. I suspect that would be my favorite area to visit.
Shaun The Sheep sculptures are fabulous. Loved the ones you found and shared. That's a HUGE bush T is hiding under. Loved the formal viola bed. I'd never HEARD of a handkerchief tree before, much less seen one. How unusual.
What a great way to end the day, even if it is a different one. Having an Americano and a croissant with butter and jam for you and a pistachio croissant for T that you two shared with us for T this week, dear Chris. And even a bit of journaling, too!! Thanks for sharing.
I'm a fan of Wisteria.
