The last day has arrived of the sign of the Zodiac "Gemini, The Twins". Tomorrow will be the first day of the next sign "The Crab" or "Cancer". I like drawing. In the past I planned twelve designs for a zodiac calendar. The spellings are not all used now (they're not SWF). In the legend, the "twins" were boys - brothers, but I drew "girl twins" - sisters!

I haven't found a four-leaved clover yet, but there are some very small toadstools among the flowers. They are no use to a bee. There are little red apples fallen to the ground under a young tree. The apples left in the tree will be bigger and better in the autumn. But this is not my best apple tree.
