Spring Colors and a Masked Selfie.


The Good: It's spring in Virginia and that is a beautiful thing! 

Mosaic Monday
The Random: Unfortunately, we are in a time of contagion. In order to visit a shop on Saturday, I put on a mask to make less the chance of catching or spreading the virus. I realize this only helps a little, but I did not get very close to anyone.

We are trying to avoid going in stores but it is difficult. For several weeks, they have been out of so many things that it has been impossible to stock up.

The Fun: Strasburg has some new butterfly murals by local artist Barbara Plitt. The green wall is the back of Pot Town Organics.


Monday Murals: The aqua wall is at the Town Park. I used the timer on my iPhone camera to take a selfie with the butterfly. I propped up the phone against my purse on the grass.

  2. Linda - Su-sieee stole my line! Glad to see Spring has come to your neck of the woods - we are still a ways off from that! We have found there are some items that are consistently missing from the shelves, like tortillas. Gotta have them for Cinco de Mayo, if we are still locked down then! Thanks for linking up, and Happy Easter to you!

  3. Beautiful signs of Spring and love the butterflies.
    I have no idea if I could use a timer on my phone, but the timer selfie was a great idea Linda. Thanks for participating and good luck with your shopping. We also have lots of empty shelves and when they are there we have restrictions on the amount of items!

  7. Such a great mural/butterfly/selfie! Good thinking. I have a selfie in mask today too, but had just gotten out of shower so look like a drowned selfie!

  8. You are wise to "dress for the occasion". I do believe we should all be so fashionable...:)jp

  9. Love that selfie! Finally got a grocery order delivered without the "out of stock" note about eggs. This time we ordered 2 large (18 egg) boxes and now we really have more than we need. Did not expect to get any. Now I feel like a hoarder!

  12. Beautiful photos! Me & my husband go only grocery shopping, early in the morning when it is not crowded. Seems ridiculous that grocery shopping has become dangerous! Stay well, happy Easter.

  13. Your spring flowers photos are lovely, and so are you as a butterfly mural. :)
