MILLIE AND THE MAGICAL MARIGOLDS
On a usual warm sunny day at 2 Birds No Stones Horse Hospital & Homestead the stable workers are all busy feeding the horses and keeping the stable clean. The mares and ponies enjoy all of the attention and care that they receive from the team as the love is shown in abundance. Sometimes one of the workers will take out his violin to play for the horses while they are recovering from a surgery, as the music gives them a feeling of peace. It is a beautiful recovery homestead located near a small lake that has three little tiny ducks that love to waddle up to the house daily to say “Hello” and receive a bite to eat after breakfast has been served.

The magic of JOY in the city!
So excited!! This weekend I will be installing my second fairy garden in a local Dorchester Park for families to enjoy. The theme will be a frog that is hosting a violin concert for all of his fairy, gnome & forest friends. Weather permitting! This time I am adding an interactive activity to encourage family bonding by reading a book about some musically talented and funny animals. I am also placing a small violin and a tree stump chair for sitting. That way parents can read to children or if they have ‘the gift’ play the violin for them. I’ve been visiting this empty tree stump on walks with my dog Polo since February and thinking about how I can design it. Each time I pass by I would throw rocks and sticks or leaves into the hole, so the level would be higher come spring or summer. Two weeks ago, I was able to spend time cutting out a piece of black soundproofing material, which allows me to know exactly how much space constraints I am truly working within for the fairy’s placement.
