First day

First day

About us

It is now my husband and I after many years of taking care of our family. Beginning with a wonderful son until he left home to become a Marine and as recently as taking care of my mother until her passing and all the life and love in between. We've been happily married since 1982 and I can hardly wait to see what the next 26 years brings. It's been a great ride!

First ever red breasted Grosbeak!

  What an interesting little bird. I've hoped to see one for a while now but never have. Not until yesterday! He showed up and stayed all day.....until George almost caught him! I'm hoping he will come back to the feeder today. The second pic is through the screen so is kinda weird but you can see his red breast fairly well. Pretty neat huh? He has a beak kinda like a parrot.

Well, gotta go outside for awhile and do some yard work before the heat comes on. Back in bit.
  It's a day later. Didn't get back to this til now. Oh, and my little wrens are back. Or they just now showed themselves again. They used to live in a tree right off the back porch but disappeared a few years back. Guess they didn't like all the activity out there. Anyway, saw them yesterday and happy they are around. Got iris' blooming along with one peonie (literally one flower), red buckeye and two different roses. One beautiful pink one and Vena's crown of roses that is yellow.


  Also have fruit coming on if the blight doesn't ruin it. Plums, peaches and nectarines! I'm so excited about them. I sure hope they make it to edible fruit. I love spring!
