SOME PHOTOS

Not sure what I’m going to write about today. I work all day today… it’s going to be a long day.

Here’s some photos I took yesterday and this morning with my new camera.

azalea blooms and begonia leaves

I didn’t realize until late last night that I’ve been spelling azalea wrong.

ant on peony

The ants on the peonies down the lane are different than the ones up closer to the house. The ones up close to the house are black, as this one is red. Not sure what the difference is, accept maybe different environment. I’ll have to research that.

fallen azalea bloom

As I was walking around I saw this on the ground. It’s getting to the point that they’re starting to fall of the bush. They still smell good, just getting late in the season for them.

lily of the valley

When I was weeding the garden yesterday, I noticed the lily of the valley. They must have been transplanted with the peonies a few years back. I’ve still got a bunch of them in one of my other gardens…where the peonies used to be.

maple tree with old plow

I want to fix this plow up and display it better than just propping it against a tree. It needs to be sanded, painted and wood handles added. It does look nice there…

This picture was taken before I finished weeding. I’ll be sure to update when it’s done.

After weeding…all I need to do now is mulch it. Won’t get to that until next week sometime.

This is the next garden I’m working on. The tree is a sage…I believe a bee balm sage. But I’m not exactly sure. I was told it was a Russian Sage, but thy have purple blooms. This one has white/yellow blooms. I actually have two of them.

I like taking pictures of the center of flowers. I feel that they get overlooked sometimes. Can’t wait til more of my flowers bloom!

Same picture, just a different crop.

tree frog

My tree frogs are back! I’ll be posting about them in a future post. This one loves to come up on the deck in the morning and say hi to us!

had enough

Sometimes it seems like he poses for my pictures. We started noticing a couple of years ago – the pool might have something to do with it.

A LITTLE SOMETHING OFF THE WALL

I was digging through some of my photos and found this…it’s from when I was homeschooling my son. It’s labeled “fire proof balloon” – part of a science project we did. I’ll have to look it up, because I have since forgotten how we made it fireproof. What ever it was, it worked.

I hope you enjoyed today’s post. I also hope you can feel that I really enjoy doing this.
