我差不多每天都会去桃园市芦竹区的乡下散步，经常看到有些爱花人士在他们家的前院栽种各类花草或小灌木。

如果看到一些特殊的花卉，我会停下来静静地观赏，或是研究它的生态，屋主看到了也不以为意。但如果我拿着写生簿站在他家围墙前面写生，他们就会好奇的凑过来看看，有时会发出一声赞叹；大多数的人只是静静的看一看就走开了，未发一语。

I almost go for a walk in the countryside of Lu-zhu Dist. of Taoyuan every day, usually I see many flowers lovers plant all kinds of flowers and bushes in their front yard.  If I see something special, I will stop and watch quietly or study its ecology, the house-owner does not mind at all when he sees me study his flowers. However, if I do painting with my sketchbook standing in front of the fence of their house, they usually approach me curiously and take a look, sometimes they make a compliment; most of them just quietly take a look and leave without saying a word.@
