School, Football, and Grandsons

Andrew looking forward to the school day
Loaded and loading for school
Andrew and Jake playing football
Making the tackle
Zander, too small to join in

makes his own game.

...and the rain came

Wonderful glorious rain!!!!
It washed the trees,
gave the plant life a drink
and settled the dust.
We got a quarter inch,
but a desperately needed quarter it was.
It flooded the windshield
and I thought,
I won't have to wash my car!
It did not stay long.
It traveled on to bless more people.

ONLY The Strong Survive

Beverly and The Sunflower Harvest

They aren't standing to greet the sun like they used to do.  The heat has finally reached the sun flowers, true lovers of the sun.
Beverly sometimes takes her car straight to the garden when she arrives.  No fancy equipment for her, no siree!  Use what you got is her motto and she does it so well.
It is sad that the sunflowers have reached their peak but oh, I can just taste those seeds!
What we don't eat will be fed to our feathered friends.
