See that gloriously bushy mess of green life? The old dogwood is saluting the garden where our vegetables will ..the other garden is further back and larger,where we'll have some sweet corn, watermelons, squash, gourds and all sorts of nice things. And probably another year of very fat deer watching over the gardens.

March 30
Remember when I said I'd stop the puppyposting? Well..I lied. Sam is nearly grown now, in size at least, (that's him on the right there) and the Trio of Terrors are the best of friends. I'll get back to blogging soonish, but for now, I have seven rose bushes to plant, my herb garden to reset, some bricks to order, a house to scrub, knitting that wants doing, books that want reading, a yard to make neat again and kids to kiss...and flowers to glory in! I love Springtime, there's so much to do and plan and dream!

It's lonesome..
Horatio and Dimity dropped in for breakfast with the pups and found no one at the bowl. Thankfully, the pups all have good homes now and Freckles has been named Sam..we kept him. Gnash was adopted by our daughter and we puppysit when they're out. I do miss the little horde of silly creatures tho. And thus ends the puppy posting. (sure miss those guys..)

A STUNNING SENIOR MOMENT
A very self-important college freshman attending a recent football game,took it upon himself to explain to a senior citizen sitting next to him whyit was impossible for the older generation to understand his generation.
“You grew up in a different world, actually an almost primitive one,” the student said, loud enough for many of those nearby to hear. “The young people of today grew up with television, jet planes, space travel, man walking on the moon, our spaceships have visited Mars. We have nuclear energy, electric and hydrogen cars, computers with light-speed processing and………”, he paused to take another drink of beer.
The Senior took advantage of the break in the student’s litany and said,“You’re right, son. We didn’t have those things when we were young……..so we invented them. Now, you arrogant little sap, what are you doing for the next generation?”
The applause was resounding.
