With our gardens dormant, except for tomatoes and peppers and herbs, I am amazed at all the produce your gardens have, Carolyn. Your green thumb...
Well done, Raddang! When I posted this photo I couldn't think of a caption. When I saw yours, it was just right!
Sherry8, your inventiveness continues to amaze me! That door is now a lovely asset to the house. We have double doors into the den, and if I had...

Growingpains, that wasn't rain, it was a deluge! As far north as central Texas, we have refugee cattle. Ranchers have a network of people with...
Serendipity! Taking a photo, and then finding the picture was even better than you expected. Hope you and your dad enjoyed your long weekend.
I cleaned out the raised bed in the seasonal garden this morning, with "help" from the two kittens. A 30 minute job turned into almost an hour,...

Oh Barb, I should have hit the "quote" button--the message from Cheryl began with "Never out of power" and ended with "Hello everyone". I really...
Your aloe may have "pups" soon. Those are little aloes that cluster around the mother plant. You can dig and lift them, put them in their own...
Warm and sunny today, like Toni's weather. Husband watered the orchard trees while I watered pot plants and the peppers. Didn't really want to do...
Just had an e-mail from Cheryl! She had 68" of rain (and assured me that was not a typo) and as Jerry said, she is starting clean-up in her home....
