I am going to work on this post a little at a time today. I have a lot of work I need to get done, and I slept in this morning which throws me off schedule. I had some help today so took advantage of it and did a lot of cleaning. More to do to get accumulated junk out of my barn but made major progress in two days.

It is almost time for my evening meal so figure I better finish this post because tomorrow is going to be busy too.

The above flower is another Hyacinth. They are one of the first plants up after a cold winter.

A couple of posts ago I shared some container gardening in my greenhouse (https://steemit.com/photography/@r2cornell/my-take-on-container-food-growing). I thought I would share the growth of my tomato plants since then.

These next two photos are different photographs of two wildflowers that I used previously. I believe they are well worth seeing from a different focus:

The final photograph is a photograph of a doe with last year's twins. They show up on my game cameras frequently:

I decided to keep some information from post to post with a little adjustments. The SBI program is one such program. I would like to remind everyone that an excellent way to support each other is through @Steembasicincome (SBI). In the event you have not looked into the program I highly recommend it. Here is a link that can answer your questions about their program:

It is very easy to start with SBI program. You just need to have someone sponor you by sending in 1 steem for 1 unit. When they do this both parties receive 1 unit. These units lead to upvotes on your posts. In the even you are not posting much they will upvote comments. I highly recommend you check out the above link for more information.

Earlier in the week they (SBI) chose me for Member spotlight: @r2cornell. The link is:

I bring SBI up here and share the post that Spotlights me to show the potential and because it is an excellent way to support social causes such as I have listed below. Remember for every unit purchased for anyone or organization you will receive an equal amount in your SBI account. So you are helping yourself in the process.

I would remind everyone that the issues in Venezuela are far from over. Here are a couple of links for programs in Venezuela that can still use our aid. I plan on adding them as partial beneficiaries to this post:

https://steemit.com/@aid.venezuela
https://fundition.io/#!/@aid.venezuela/30wfgrql0 (They continue to accept donation through Fundition until their new program begins)
https://steemit.com/@arrozymangophoto
https://fundition.io/#!/@arrozymangophoto/z31fxh41j (new Fundition program building off of first one)

They are providing good documentation of what they are doing through video, photographs, and narrative). Please take the time and check them out.

There are two other programs located in Bangladesh that I have tried to support as well, and both can always use assistance. Each has an important role to play in their community.

Check all their blogs for more information on the excellent work they have begun.

Well it is time to close out this post. It is long past my evening meal and I am tired. I hope each of you finds something in my post you enjoy.

I am using a Canon EOS Rebel T5 for all of these photographs, except where noted.

NAMASTE

you always have a busy time. that you use to work. I like all flower shoots. namely Hyacinth flowers, and wild flowers too. I also like deer because I've never seen a deer.

Thank you very much. I appreciate it!

Hello sir @r2cornell, nice to meet you again. as always you are always active in doing any activity. I am amazed by you. in general, if someone has reached the age of 60, then he stops to do activities. even more so when doing strenuous activities. and maybe that I feel because of his unstable health. causing him to be unable to work.

But you are always passionate. you are able to do activities. even if it's a heavy activity. that's what makes me very impressed with you. like you usually do a photo shoot of some flowers. I like the Hyacinth flower, because the color is very bright. I also like the other flowers you display.

Hopefully your days will always be fun. my greetings to your wife and your dog. hopefully their lives are always happy, and their health is maintained.

Thank you very much. I cannot imagine stopping physical activities at 60, let alone at 66. The more activity the better my health. Even the strenuous activities. I have been building myself up, seeing winters do not allow for as much activity as the Spring season. I do not even think about age, I just and enjoy the activities.

I am glad you enjoyed the flowers. The Hyacinth flower is extra beautiful because it is one of the early Spring flowers (like the daffodils) which is wonderful after the snow finally melting.

I also agree with you that the more activity the body will become more healthy. if everyone has thoughts like you, of course all will have a healthy body. my activities are also like you. I work in a warehouse company. I always have to move items for sale.

with my young age, I hope to have a healthy body, even to my old age. but if I may suggest, with our two activities being heavy, we must always consume nutritious foods and lots of water. because it tends to lack fluids in the body. in this case it will cause dehydration fever. hope your days are always nice sir. I am happy to be able to always see your flowers, your vegetable plants, and your activities.

Drinking lots of water is important in all temperatures, and yes healthy eating is critical to maintaining health

Omg! that is excellent photography and loved flowers.

Thanks @r2cornell
