The Right Tools

do make a difference.
It also nice when someone lends a hand
and a tractor.
These are the only tools I have a license to use.
Thanks to Hubby the work went much faster.

Good Fences and Flowers

Wonder if Mom knew when she planted these Sweet Williams years ago that Williams would also be my married name.

Visit Good Fences and enjoy views from all over the world.

Into The Woods

is where I go for peace
There is always something to see
that tells me
that, at least here,
there is balance and life.

The Cone Flower Community

While watching the Praying Mantis
She spied me!
These are wonderful insects to have in your garden.  As a child I got a nickel for finding one of these and relocating it in our garden.  Lady Bugs, the real ones, were a penny apiece.  I also earned money by removing potato beetles.  The Adult was worth a nickel and the young were a penny apiece.  I became rich!
I am glad to see any pollinators but the honey bees have become a rarity.
The Cone Flower/Echinacea  is now growing its second round of blooms while the others prepare to seed.
A pair of Pearl Crescent Butterflies, I think, dine together.
Sometimes I have trouble identifying them, Alex.
If someone knows the right name. please, let me know.
