I know your remember my arbor, I cut down and dug out the roses and planted Morning Glories this year. On July 8, they were started up. You can see the twine I added to give they somewhere to climb. On August 15, the thing was ready to take over the world. We couldn’t walk … Read more
Well, things have improved on the coast, but there is a long way to go. I was looking around this morning, and found this. Oh, and check this out, also. After you read the articles, keep praying for the area. Thank you.
Papa and I went out to the garden last night, and picked many cucumbers and zucchini. We also cut a lot of lettuce, and pulled a few carrots and beets. I picked one cabbage to eat, I enjoy slaw this time of year. I was able to give some cucumbers away, but we are overrun … Read more
I’ve had more problems than usual with my vegetable garden this year. We had to replant the lettuce and the carrots. The beets came up pretty spotty. A few of our tomatoes suffered frost damage, and some tomatoes just died, don’t know why. To top it all off, a few days ago, 12+ broke off … Read more

Papa, GS2, GD2 and I took a quick trip to the Cranbrook Science Museum today. It was Saturday, so there was a bevy of activity. GS2 and Papa watched a show in the planetarium while GD2 and I wandered. Her reaction to the Mammoth was , “Look at the big elephant!” She found the motion … Read more
I know you remember the (what-a-nice) dish post of a while back. I was confronted with a similar situation a couple of days ago. You remember my flu, right? I didn’t feel too good Sunday evening, so I asked Papa to go to the store and get cake and topping for our strawberries. He did. … Read more
