I’ve always been intrigued by fungi, but since I learned of Patty’s love for them I think of her every time I see striking ones. These fungi are for Patty’s pleasure.
Until next time…

These are pictures taken at different times over the past few weeks. I had intended to post them as they were taken, but life, being what it is, got in my way. All subjects are not actually “wild”, but since our entire grounds have become, it fits. All subjects are masterpieces from the Master’s hands.
The [...]

phone. When Cingular South got gobbled up by an AT&T merge, my DH and I changed our cell phone provider. Both of us settled for the “free” phone available with the plan we selected. It wasn’t much, and mine finally bit the dust. A couple weeks ago I made a trip to a Cellular store [...]

I found this beautiful reminder of God’s wonderful gift to “whosoever will” while walking in our yard a couple weeks ago. It’s a must share…along with the Legend of the Passion Flower.
The Passion Flower has become a symbol of Christianity visually depicting the Crucifixion of Jesus Christ. Historically it has been associated with Jesuit priests [...]

I love to work outside in my garden, but I’m not very heat resistant. Once I get over-heated I am in likely to end up with a vicious headache…migraine proportion. A few years back someone shared a cool down tip with me, though for the life of me, I can’t remember who. I keep a [...]

Late last week my DH has surgery on his shoulder. As a result my computer time has been short.
Ooglebloops stopped by and commented on my spring fever giveaway and mentioned growing potatoes in tires, an idea I shared with her. I thought I’d share some pictures of how well they are growing. This method [...]

Our keets are growing fast and are leaving behind the “quail look” of newly hatched guineas. They’ve started getting gray feathers and their necks have gotten longer. This morning I introduced them to their new home for the next couple weeks or so if we are fortunate. They are still in my washroom, and I [...]

Even though another blast of cold weather is expected to move through the southeast over the next few weeks, it feels like spring today. Days have warmed enough our lettuce bolted and dons tiny flowers. I’ll let it go in hopes of harvesting seed for the fall. Pansies are their full glory but soon the [...]

I love guineas. They are better watch dogs than most dogs at announcing visitor and keep hawks, rats and snakes out of their territory. A flock of guineas make more racket than a T-ball team. They are wildish and rowdy…free spirits in every way. Guineas are the gypsies of the bird world. Vagabonds, every one.

I saw this poor fellow on Drudge yesterday and thought about posting the video. I decided not to. Then who was on the news last night but Ugly himself…so I’m sharing.
Until next time…
