I’ve not been into genealogy this week……. I’ve not been into researching genealogy…….. I did attend the wedding of a grandson and I guess that’s certainly to be considered family history…….
This week I’ve been thinking about gardening and my garden and I’m sure many of our Tour Family are some percentage gardeners too. This is a scene in my yard showing (to the right) the birdhouse trellis wherein wrens raised their brood, a purple clematis (we say CLE-matis and some say CLEM-atis…which do you say?), “Lucifer” crocosmia, azaleas (finished blooming), a Horse Chestnut Tree (grown from a seed), an Amaryllis (I keep all the past years’ blubs in one big planter; they may bloom or not, their choice), and to the left, a happy holly bush. The fence is pieces of driftwood that I’ve hauled home and wired to a re-bar frame. And this is just one small corner of my garden!
If you’d really like to see beautiful flowers, Google jacquie lawson flowers of america and then click on some of the things she offers to gratify the senses without having to dig in the dirt. I especially liked America the Beautiful.
I’d really enjoy seeing and sharing pictures of YOUR garden……………. we cannot and really should not be doing genealogy every waking minute in the short days of summer. Especially in states (like Washington) where the summer is short.
Donna, aka Mother Hen, until next week
