What do you think of Pope Francis‘ Laudato Si environmental encyclical?
Praise Be His creation!
I’m taking full advantage of taking care of my share of †GOD’s† ☼creations☼ and creatures this weekend!
Following a long week filled with grading speeches and continuing my doctoral dissertation data processing, I beat the heat before today’s rain hit to tend to the garden.


St. Francis of Assisi ~ the Patron Saint of Animals ~ welcomes GOD’s creatures into this Garden of Creation!

In bloom …

Fully blossomed!
To yours truly, gardening is very therapeutic…

And to my fine, furry friends, this gives them a chance to peer into the great outdoors!

Remember my student’s science fair project about ♫music♪ effect on plants?

Science Project Poster: an elementary eye candy version of the presentations that I teach and the research experiment that I’m conducting!
I still have his yellow hibiscus that went without ♪music♫ in the experiment.

Now that we’ve entered ♣spring♣, this hibiscus can soak in the ☼sunshine☼, bloom and blossom!
Today, we had a hail storm hit, but I didn’t have much notice to remove it …

Before … Will my hibiscus withhold this hail storm??
At least this fortunate flower’s still in tact in the aftermath of this April shower!

After … YES, indeed, she did survive without withering!!!
Friendly reminder: Earth Day is on April 22nd!
