We said farewell to some old friends today. They came earlier in the week on short notice. There was lots of food, laughter and fishing. They...
Flea Beatles are my nemesis Chrisle. I've only been able to get around them with four approaches. 1 - I make sure I till the soil in the fall....
PAC - I really love your Pansy Tree. I've never heard of that before. I've gone back and looked a few times. I'd definitely love to sit under...
Happy Monday :-) We are on the last day of a heat warning. It is very unusual for us to have over 40 C and not cool down at night. The typical...
That is so clever!! I told Hubby about that and he thought the idea was fantastic!
