Michigan Trip

Our first stop was mama's garden.  We had a great time, and I miss everybody already. 

Garden Art

Mama put this creative arrangement together.  She says the purple millet does better in the shade.  No wonder mine looks so shaggy.  The bike came from Jeff & PJ's. 

Garden Tour

From l-r, Mark, Jeff, PJ, and mama--in somebody's pretty garden on the garden tour.

Stellas, petunias, and sundrops in PJ's garden.

Michigan

We're in Michigan, visiting mama and PJ. I have taken hundreds of garden pictures so there will be lots of new stuff next week. See you then!

Happy Birthday Mama!

One of mama's creations--she's an artist. And today's her birthday!

My Flowers Love Me

Another one of my mama's creations--Raggedy Ann, whose flowers love her.

Damn Rabbits

This is a sweet little bellflower that the rabbits just demolished.  The stick  has Deervik on it.  Hopefully that will stop the rabbits while the plant makes an attempt to regrow.  I think this may be the real test for the Deervik.  We'll see.

Look Who's Twenty!

It doesn't seem possible that it's been 20 years since Isaac arrived.  He was way overdue--I didn't think he'd ever get here, but since then the time has been flying by.   He's taking summer classes at UK right now.   Happy Birthday, Ike!  We love you.

 

Big Storm

This is our neighbor's tree.  At V & Warren's, a limb fell on their car.    Down the street, there is a big blue spruce that was totally uprooted.  Fortunately, no one was hurt. The Calls, our neighbor to the other side, had a big limb to fall on their garage.  I see Bill watering his peppers every morning.  He owns a body shop and he agreed that it would  be a busy day at the shop today.    Some flowers in the yard took a beating, but I think they'll bounce back.  At least we got some rain!
