Netty, usually Monday is my least favorite day of the week (laundry, lots of outside work in the heat, and all that unfun stuff) but today we are...
Cayuga, anticipation is half of enjoyment, so don't worry about us waiting to see your photos. Personally, I'm betting they are beauts!
While mowing yesterday I saw this BIG bug sitting on the rim of a pot. It was about 1 1/4" long and wasn't moving. My husband took a few photos,...
There are few things better for a child than a big old dawg! The one with the child, Dane, and Christmas tree should be captioned "Yes Virginia,...
I just finished mowing the back yard, and am cooling down before my shower (which I need, lordy, lordy!). The chicks moved from their playpen into...
Philip, I've only had one rooster--from the first batch of chicks we got from a poultry supplier. I named him Cyrus, but should have named him...
I forgot to mention that when horseherb blooms, the bees like it. No problem walking through the horseherb--the bees see you coming and move off.

Good humid morning! I picked over the garden and took squash into the food bank. My husband checked the hives, and will be splitting one soon. We...
Kate, I love that story of your collie pup found in a phone box. Sometimes fortune decides we need a bit of a lift, and gives us a pup.
Your pup just gets cuter and cuter! You are going to have so much fun getting to know each other, and being trained by him (yes, it is time for my...
:heart:
How kind of you! As Netty said, you undoubtedly made someone's day. Gardeners are the nicest people:stew2:!
Sunshine, heat, and humidity this morning--yes, this is my Texas! I picked more squash so tomorrow is a run to the food pantry with my offerings....
FBG, one of the great pleasures of gardening is doing what you can, and then resting on the porch with a cold drink and watching the wildlife...
