August 29, 2007 - Last of the summer blooms

Someone fetilized and has taken good care of these blooms. Summer is started to fade, and there are some that could stand a little deadheading. Today I offer them as a virtual gift to my Mother for her birthday. Unfortunately, she is not in good health. For several years, my sister has gone to her house and planted her a flower garden for Mother’s Day. It always makes her happy.

Tomorrow I will celebrate my first year as a DCP Blogger. I hope you will stop by and visit.

June 24, 2007 - Master Gardeners Petals to Pathways

The garden tour was quite an experience. I ran in to people I knew from various groups; lost my ticket after my third stop…went back, and sure enough someone had turned it in; missed one farm simply because I over scheduled my day; and arrived home, tired but with lots of ideas for low budget landscaping in my back yard.
After 307 posts, I have finally figured out how to add thumbnails in a way that you can click on them and they will enlarge. I’m a bit, slow…but getting there! I’ll be posting more this week.

June 10, 2007 - Wild Rhody

Last month the wild rhododenderns were in full bloom. As you drove along, you would see splotches of pink against the green. It is a true sign summer is on it’s way in the Northwest.

May 26, 2007 - The “Dock” on 101

Between Carlsborg Road and Kitchen Dick on the North side of the road is a lovely little pond with a dock. As I whiz by on my way home, I always think how pretty and peaceful the scene.
