Blog Land

Hello everyone, as summertime has reached us, and

I have such a large yard to tend to ( house and job) I

just can't seem to find the time for blogging.

Would love to hear from all of you via-e-mail.

My grand hopes are to be back in late fall.

Everyone have a wonderful summer.

This area is behind my garage and has always

been an eye sore. I laid the sand stone, scatter planted

hosta, airplane plant, rock fern and monkey grass then

filled it in with black mulch. The neighbor's old fence

looked so bad, so I freshened it up with the lattice.

I found the little white picket fence to finish it off.

The begonia is called "Dragonfly leaf".

The ivy in the basket is a smaller version of English ivy.

What's up Mom? (Millie)

Just a swinging! (Maggie is in the swing every chance she gets)
My fur babies have been with me every step of the way..

God has blessed me in so many ways and I want to take

care of all he has given me. When I am working with

my plants I feel so thankful for having the health to

accomplish what I do. I have to tell you, my body is

sore and crying for me to stop for a spell!!

~Blessings to all. ~

Can't you just imagine

I will be on vaction next week and this is where

I would like to spend it. Just an old pair of overalls with

lots of pockets, worn out sneakers a camera and

maybe a fishing pole. Don't forget the old quilt

for basking in the sun.

New Zealand's Milford Track

This is a backpak hiking trail in

New Zealand
Once described as the finest walks in the world,

the Milford Track is one of New Zealand's most popular

walks, with approximately 14000 people completing

the Milford track each year.

The Milford Track is in the heart of Fiordland

National Park, a World Heritage Area, also the wildest,

wettest and most isolated part of New Zealand.

Everything about this area is dramatic and awesome.

It was fashioned by massive uplifts of rock 2 million years ago, and

moulded by water in all its forms, ice,snow, rain, glaciers,

waterfalls, rivers and lakes.

Favorite Travel

I have had several people ask me which country that I might favor. As of now I think Wales is on top. I would love to spend several days just hiking through the beautiful country side. Thank you all for stopping by for the visit and sharing the beauty that God created worldwide for us to enjoy. Of course I enjoy the beauty and blissful peace just sitting on my swing in my back yard. I wish you all a very BLESSED Mother's day.

Wales is a country that is part of the United Kingdom,

bordered by England to its east,

and the Atlantic Ocean and Irish Sea to it's west..

Originally a Celtic land and one of the Celtic nations.

Many tourists have been drawn to Wales's "wild ....and picturesque"

landscapes.From the late 19Th century onwards, Wales acquired its

popular image as the "land of song", attributable in part of the revival of the eisteddfod tradition. Actors, singers and other artists are celebrated in Wales today, often achieving international success.

Wales is sometimes referred to as the 'Principality of Wales',

or just the 'principality', although this has no modern

geographical or constitutional basis
