Takin' the Scenic Route

Very slowly getting items together to sell.

$60 Or best reasonable offer. Prefer to sell them all as a set.

I'm selling this set of 5 vintage ceramic pots that have a variety of options for uses.
These vintage pots have a drainage hole and attached saucer which is very handy. The approximate dimensions: 5" diameter at the top and 4.5" height. They have not been used much and have been in storage. I've used them as planters, utensil holders for picnics on the patio etc. Use your imagination.
The colors are my favorites and I'm having a difficult time giving them up. I wish I still had those plates. :(

* I used Ai to clean up my actual photos.

Do you ever feel connected to a tree or trees in general?

Beneath the forest floor lies a hidden world more alive than most can imagine. It's called the mycorrhizal network — a vast web of fungal threads that links trees together like an underground internet.

Through this living system, trees share water, minerals, and even warning signals about drought or insect a*tacks. But the most astonishing discovery is the role of "mother trees." These ancient giants can recognize their own offspring and send them extra nutrients, keeping their young alive in deep shade where sunlight cannot reach.

In some cases, scientists have even found centuries-old tree stumps still alive — being kept nourished by their neighbors long after their own trunks were gone. Far from competing for survival, forests are built on cooperation, intelligence, and connection.

Every step we take in the woods is above a quietly pulsing network of life, communicating, supporting, remembering. Nature is not silent. It's speaking beneath our feet.

Yesterday, I had a pleasant encounter with a doe as I got out of my car to enter my home. She was grazing on some grass near the hydrangeas. Shortly after, I left again and had to stop halfway down my driveway. The doe was crossing and heading to our neighbor's property. I just sat there because I noticed a fawn, then another one too. The mom didn't get far until the fawns ran towards her and decided it was lunchtime. I put the window down, shut the car off and just enjoyed being there. They didn't mind.

I was able to video it. Turn up the volume, you might be able to hear them. They were noisy eaters. 🙂
