Walk About and Plants, Misty River and Emmy Lou, and Crinoid.

Emmy Lou and I did the morning walk about, I took my camera with us.  Dayflower, dug this out of  the wooded area.   Spiderwort in front of Jacobs Ladder.                                                                                                    Bee Balm This is my hummingbird. Someone commented on this in another post. I think it was  Sheri from Red Rose. I got this from  a very talented guy who worked with all sorts of metal. His name is Major Hall. Unfortunately, Major now suffers from Alzheimer's and just recently lost his beloved wife Anna.   If anyone would like to see Major's work you can find it on this post I did years ago. Post: Edit Such talent. Another wild petunia peeking out of the...

Cat Rules, The Bridge, and Dragonflies

Image
Hi everyone! Here's hoping your July has started off with a great  BANG! I am sure that those of  you that have a cat already understand all the rules. But in case you don't,  it is all spelled out for  you.   I have the rock in my car to pour into the dry ditch but I got them two days ago and it's just been to hot to  mess with. But my decorative bridge  came in. I love it.  Maybe one day when I have  the welder up and going and can locate some cool metal,  I will think about making a larger one. I have actually seen a couple of dragonflies in the yard the past week. Problem is, will the toads eat the dragonflies? Oops....my eco friendly yard might be drawing insects to their death? On the flip side, I do have at least, prob more of the night shift works seen in bottom right of the meme above. Happy, happy Thursday to you  all, Pam

Cool Pathway, Pack of Sunflower Seeds, Toads, and The Life of a Hornworm

Welcome to  July.    I love this.... I can see this in my front yard going up inside of an amazing garden. Talking about gardens, I loved my tour and seeing all the different kinds of plants, blooms and beauty. The one thing I did notice, not  a lot of random items in  the gardens. Not like I prefer to put in mine. No baby bed springs,  no actual beds, no lanterns... give me a few years and  I am going to have a whopping garden with lots of things in it. Speaking of which, I purchased some sunflower seeds from the  wedding venue we toured. It has a mix of sunflowers in it.  Pics from internet Chocolate Cherry Autumn Beauty  Lemon Queen Peredovik Velvet Queen So excited to plant these next year and see what I come up with. YAY. I love Sunflowers. So, you all know that I have toads. No silly, I don't raise them! I failed to tell you the other  day while working on the dry creek bed I was digging, ran into a root and I took the shovel ...
