As I sit here in my cold bedroom writing this post, I realized, I haven’t explored anywhere new in Utah this year. Usually, I would usually go to at least one place I either never been or haven’t been in a while each year.

I took this picture at the Osaka Museum of Housing and Living. Ever since visiting the People’s Museum in Glasgow, Scotland, I’ve been wanting to visit museums that dedicates to the lives of common people in a city. I was so glad there was such museum in Osaka, Japan.
It’s so fascinating to learn about people’s lives, much better than just looking at some old rock from hundreds of thousands of years ago. I saw this when I exited the main gallery. I didn’t know what they were but upon looking at the sign on the wall, I discovered these are quilts.

I’m opening this week’s post with a close up of a sunflower in my front yard. I absolutely love them and all the pollinators they attract. I took the first photo before the rain came in and the second after. It’s been raining on and off for the last 2 days and when it’s raining, the pollinators are usually nowhere to be seen but it also gives me an opportunity to get closers without having to worried about getting stung by Mr. Bee.
My favorite photo this week has to be this photo – Mr. Grasshopper doing yoga under my shade cloth. Since last year, I have been noticing quite a few of these guys in my garden. I haven’t determine whether they are good or evil, yet as I haven’t seen much damage done by them. I guess I’ll let it be for now.
