Amazing photos! You certainly saw a lot of wildlife in a natural setting. Was that monkey doing a "The Thinker" by Rodin pose?
By Jove, Texas did secede, and joined Norway! We've been on a weather roller coaster this year, and I want OFF
So that's why I'm so darned cheerful! Everyone thinks I'm just goofy, but I'm just dirty and not depressed.:smt119
Welcome! You'll find that stopping by here is like visiting with neighbors over the garden fence--except your "neighbors" are from all over the...
Oh, that would be so lovely to taste! Of course I've never seen nor tasted a Thai mini pineapple, but just seeing it is a treat!
Hank, I agree. I can't believe how many great photographers, and thus great photos there are on this forum. If you think we have trouble deciding,...
I counted and we have 23 roses spread around the gardens. Here is one of my favorites, Bibi Mazoon. She's an Austin rose which fell out of favor...
Soapwort? Toni, I love your sense of humor! Those are great finds. You have a rare ability to find the best "junque" and make treasures of it!
Toni, could that first one be delphinium? We have them popping up all over from starts a friend gave me, and that the birds so kindly planted in...
Sjoerd, in the fall I think I'll try your method of pre-germinating plugs of spinach. Both plantings of my spinach got washed out this spring, but...
Cappy, that's a great fire pit! I can see why you enjoy it so much! It must be a feminine thing--I like to poke and stir and tend a fire and my...
Congratulations, Kitty! I bet you come up with a great photo for the next contest (something with a cat, perhaps?).
Happy Birthday, Toni! I will join Droopy in a heartfelt but silent rendition of "For She's a Jolly Good Lady." Now you've received two of the best...
CJay, when we planted our asparagus, I made a 6" deep trench, placed the crowns and covered them with about 2" of dirt. When growth appeared, I...
EJ, so many of your flowers are ones we grew in upstate NY. I miss having them, but seeing your garden pictures is such a pleasure, and brings...
Droopy, your mother is fortunate to have you--you are not helpless, you are helping her more than you can know. I'll pray everything goes well for...
Oh my, what a wonderful and varied garden! I especially like your greenhouse, and is that a water barrel I see to the left of it?
Tooty, the activity seems very easy--no pre-registration, no cost--just count birds and submit your list and location to ebird. I've printed out...
Anything that involves sitting down I'm all for! I'll mark it on our calendar, and spend most of the day sitting on patio with my binoculars and...
