Lots of Pictures ... Ramble

I think I figured out one reason I keep not blogging. I like to add pictures and it has gotten to where it takes forever to do it.

Like my tree? Notice the hole in it? I don't see how it lives, yet it does.

One of our yearling nannie's babies. Notice the short ears?

Mama to the baby! Notice her "halo". She wouldn't keep her head out of the fence so they kids "fixed" her. I must say they learned it from me. The first attempt they put a POST on her horns. It was about 1 1/2 inches around and 2 ft long. I made them find a much smaller stick. Usually by the time the duct tape rots away the horns have grown enough that they can't stick them through the net wire. At this point she can stick her head through, but she can't get it out.

More of my babies. This is my only set of twins out of these young nannies. The are so shinny!

A just because picture I thought the dragon fly was pretty.

Sunset on Mothers Day!

Notice how fast the colors were changing I took both of these in about 5 minutes.

Saturday evening we potted my clearance plants I had bought in town on Thur. and the ones I got in the other town on Sat. Everyone got into it.

Most were hanging basket plants that S potted as I hung.

MJ was responsible for hauling the gin trash potting soil from the garden area to the porch.

On Friday I discovered a coach whip caught in some old netting at the garden. I ask DIL if she wanted to help me free it. I held it while she clipped the netting from it. Then we brought it in for show and tell. Yes, the kids did all touch it.

And yes my mom was rolling in her grave as we did this. She liked only one kind of snake.... a dead one! She was deadly with her hoe. I am much more picky with which ones I send on to snake heaven.

See my garden helper? He is sorta hiding back in the picture. I had a terrible time trying to get his picture. He wasn't impressed with the flash or me trying to pose him.
