I love that caption! Especially since that is a photo of a very young giraffe born at the Waco Cameron Park Zoo. Well done, Hank, and I'm looking...
Ohh, please roast some and enjoy one of life's greater pleasures! Those are lovely chestnuts--do you have to tend the tree in any way, perhaps...
It seems you are enjoying your new property already! It is a lovely view, and the wildlife you'll see--wow! Keep us posted, please.
Hilda, you brought back memories of upstate NY winters, and trying to keep the driveway clear, and a path to the house. Snow shoveling is one of...
Welcome from central Texas! You'll love it here and please feel free to join in the conversations and answer/ask questions.
Islandlife, I agree that most plants don't read their own tags! I've planted roses touted as 3'x4' and found out that 6'x5' is more likely;...
Barb, aren't we blessed with great husbands! That greenhouse, like the rest of your gardens, looks so tidy and well cared for.
Who would have known that those two were the same young lady! She is imaginative, and talented. Hope the Haunted House appreciates her and pays...
Yes, Toni, having the "cleaning lady" (me:() scrub directly with bleach may do it. If not, I'll try 409 and rub vigorously (early in the morning...
I know this sounds silly, but I am still going to ask. I wash a lot of cleaning cloths and workshop cloths in my clothes washer. I've noticed that...
You have such a friendly garden! Great photos of butterflies and birds, and even the thirsty squirrel. We have tithonia here also, and it is a...

Carolyn, thank you for sharing your gorgeous fall colors! We don't have a brilliant autumn, just a subtle change of colors, so seeing your version...
Toni, Tyler isn't all that far from you, and although there were just three varieties of DAs, all three were good ones! They also have a good...
I've mentioned before that we go to Chamblee's in Tyler Texas to get roses--huge selection of very healthy roses, and the place smells wonderful!...
22 dozen--you were expecting me to come for breakfast!:setf_020: Those rolls look delicious, and were greatly appreciated, I'd bet.
Longhorns are considered to be "easy keepers" in that they don't require a lot of specialized grazing and a bit less water than Angus or Brangus...
I agree with Toni and 2ofus--gardens are to be enjoyed, not "designed". I've seen gardens laid out by landscapers (boring) and by nurseries (rigid...
Welcome! We have bee hives, butterfly plants, and bird feeders and hummingbird attracting plants here on our small farm. We also have extensive...
Eileen, I was thinking "Chalky", but the color may change. Dilemma was more black and white when she was a calf, and now is mostly black. Perhaps...
