I’m thinking about painting the front door this orangy yellow color.  I’m going to practice first this weekend and just paint the numbers above the door that color to try it out.  (The second picture is what the door looks like now.  The plan is to toss out the ugly screen door and just have a bright yellow door.)  Our house looks so ugly and weird to me from the front.  Like a big brown shoe box.  Especially compared to the houses a block down which are all about 100 years old and purple and green and turquoise blue and adorable with cute front porches.  Of course they also don’t have central air conditioning and heating…so I think I win.  lol.  

The rhododendron has gotten very impressive! (Except for the bees. I don’t like the bees at all.)

Today we went on an adventure to an old catholic cemetery in Spokane.

PLANT MYSTERY SOLVED!!

 miscreantrose said: a rhododendron! :) They are lovely and hardy things.

 

Thanks for solving the mystery!!!  :-)  I’m glad they’re hardy since I know nothing about plants other than to point and say, “PRETTY!” at them.  

Another plant mystery. Anyone know what the heck this thing is? I don’t even know if its a tree or a bush or what. lol.

Chris and I are going to Glacier National Park next month. It’s a five hour drive from Spokane. We are staying at the Apgar Village Inn. This is a picture of the view from the rooms at the hotel that someone posted on tripadvisor. It looks so pretty! Only three weeks away! I’m so excited!
