Had a bimble around this lovely place and struck lucky with beautiful day for sunlight. Defo a revisit in spring with all the apple blossom in the orchards in bloom.
Driving in Haiti is crazy. This is a narrow (duh) street on our way up to our walled compound. There are no sidewalks, and people could be on either side. The only rule of the road seems to be the bigger vehicle gets the right of way.
On our first day, our bus was met by a pickup truck coming down the hill. Each driver started yelling at the other, and there was a man standing on the street whose head moved back and forth as if he were watching a tennis match. Finally, he started yelling at the pickup driver and motioning him to back up.
Now look carefully at the space above: Can you imagine a bus and a pickup truck side by side? Haitian drivers come much closer to other vehicles and people than I have ever seen in the States. And they weave around each other on bigger roads like nobody's business. Whenever a driver is on a curve, he beeps the horn so that drivers in the other direction know that he is coming.
"Let us ... remember Peter: three times he denied Jesus, precisely when he should have been closest to him; and when he hits bottom he meets the gaze of Jesus who patiently, wordlessly, says to him: "Peter, don't be afraid of your weakness, trust in Me." Peter understands, he feels the loving gaze of Jesus and he weeps. How beautiful is this gaze of Jesus — how much tenderness is there! Brothers and sisters, let us never lose trust in the patience and mercy of God!"
– Pope Francis: (Homily on Divine Mercy Sunday, April 7, 2013)

I've not been to Nupend Wood for a few weeks since the bluebells had finished. I'd decided first to have a look at Common Hill reserve close-by. Common Hill is a small pasture of 2-3 acres just outside of Fownhope, Herefordshire. As I had hoped, lots of common spotted orchids were in bloom. The reserve is managed by Herefordshire nature trust as is Nupend wood, both lie along the River Wye trail. The trust lay corrugated sheet in parts of the meadows to give shelter for local reptiles and I always hope for a suprise when I lift one of these. To my delight the site at Common hill revealed a wonderful grass snake, and a slo worm. Both were close to one another and it occured to me that they must not pose a threat to one another and the grass snake dosn't consider the sloworm as a meal. Anyway that was my first grass snake and it was engaging to see his eyes focused on me and his tongue tasting the air. Wonderful.
My next visit was to Nupend wood to look for the Stinking Iris, hopfully in bloom. And yes, the Iris are blooming and I hope will be around for a few weeks. I walked up the lane to the pastures at Nupend, lots of birdboxes along the way in the surrouding woods. I wonder why there are so many types. Walking through the pastures my eyes were taken by the sight of Greater butterfly orchids in flower. I'd not expected any here and where I had hoped to find some, Joans Hill Farm, there were none, at least where I looked. Sometimes it's easy to miss things but once an eye focuses, more just pop up. Under the corrugated at Nupend were three or more slo worms. No grass snakes this time. I will post more images as time allows.

I used to have 2 Huskies that I loved tremendously. I lost them in the break up with my ex. It took me a long time to get back to a place where I wanted another dog, because as every pet owner knows ... grieving takes time.
When I finally felt it was time (and I was ready) to get another dog, I called the local humane society. I'm a big believer in adopting/saving/rescuing. To my delight (and disappointment), they did not have any dogs in their shelter, which is a rarity for almost any animal shelter.
I saw an ad in the local paper for Siberian Huskies. I'm not a proponent of paying a lot of money for dogs as they encourage 'Puppy Mills'. However, the ad said, "cost to cover bills only", so I called the guy. Sure enough, he was only looking to recoup the costs already laid out for vet bills (first shots) and food.
(He raises/races Siberian Huskies, but Alli and her litter came from on of his non-breeding dogs. It seems one of his male dogs got loose one night and romanced one of his 'non-sledder' gals. ;-)
So, I agreed and he arrived at my office with 3 puppies; 2 girls and a boy. The boy looked a little ill from the travel/motion and the other girl was stepping all over her siblings for attention.
Alli wouldn't look at any of us. She turned her back to everyone and sat with her head down, facing the door. From the very beginning, she didn't like people and didn't want anything to do with us.
I knew in an instant she was my girl.
As time went on, my wife, family and friends would often marvel at how so very much alike Alli and I are in personality.
I've never been big into "eerie superstitions", but I cannot help but wonder at the coincidence of it all. A humane society that didn't have dogs available for adoption; an ad in the paper for 'cost-recovery' only; the 'timing' of me deciding it was time to get a dog.

Nymans is an English garden in Haywards Heath, Sussex. It was developed, starting in the late 19th century, by three generations of the Messel family, and was brought to renown by Leonard Messel.
In 1953 Nymans became a National Trust property.[1] Nymans is the origin of many sports, selections and hybrids, both planned and serendipitous, some of which can be identified by the term nymansensis, "of Nymans". Eucryphia × nymansensis (E. cordifolia × E. glutinosa) is also known as E. "Nymansay". Magnolia × loebneri 'Leonard Messel', Camellia 'Maud Messel' and Forsythia suspensa 'Nymans', with its bronze young stems, are all familiar shrub to gardeners.
History
In the late 19th century, Ludwig Messel, a member of a German Jewish family, settled in England and bought the Nymans estate, a house with 600 acres on a sloping site overlooking the picturesque High Weald of Sussex. There he set about turning the estate into a place for family life and entertainment, with an Arts and Crafts-inspired garden room where topiary features contrast with new plants from temperate zones around the world. Messel's head gardener from 1895 was James Comber, whose expertise helped form plant collections at Nymans of camellias, rhododendrons, which unusually at the time were combined with planting heather (Erica) eucryphias and magnolias. William Robinson advised in establishing the Wild Garden.[2]
His son Colonel Leonard Messel succeeded to the property in 1915 and replaced the nondescript Regency house with the picturesque stone manor, designed by Sir Walter Tapper and Norman Evill in a mellow late Gothic/Tudor style. He and his wife Maud (daughter of Edward Linley Sambourne) extended the garden to the north and subscribed to seed collecting expeditions in the Himalayas and South America.
The garden reached a peak in the 1930s and was regularly opened to the public. The severe reduction of staff in World War II was followed in 1947 by a disastrous fire in the house, which survives as a garden ruin. The house was partially rebuilt and became the home of Leonard Messel's daughter[3] Anne Messel and her second husband the 6th Earl of Rosse. At Leonard Messel's death in 1953 it was willed to the National Trust with 275 acres of woodland, one of the first gardens taken on by the Trust. Lady Rosse continued to serve as Garden Director.

Cleveland Trust Company the largest bank in the midwest at one time, was established in 1894 as the Cleveland Trust Co. with $500,000 capital and John G. W. Cowles as its first president. In 1903 Cleveland Trust merged with the Western Reserve Trust Co., and kept their offices open as branches. At that time, Calvary Morris succeeded Cowles. Having outgrown a series of rented offices by 1905, the bank built a new headquarters bldg. at E. 9th and Euclid, which opened in 1908.
