Too Hot to Garden

I've got the garden to a fairly good point- mulched and ready to grow. I couldn't imagine working out there this week. And.... the gnats are here. I mean- it's lovely! Really! Come visit!

My New Truck.... I Wish.

We finally got the pine straw mulch put on our garden. Perfect truck for the job.... perfect hat for the job!

Wildlife in Our Backyard

Well- we've seen a bit more... or maybe just a different sort of wildlife, here in Georgia. The most exciting ones I haven't been able to capture with my camera- like the armadillo and bobcats, of course. Luke has seen 3 bobcats and I've seen 1. I've decided that I could take one- if attacked. Here are two, less frightening, creatures that I was able to get pictures of.

The Dragonflies are huge- and they are everywhere:)

This is one of our turtle friends- the little one. We've got a big one that I think was trying to lay eggs in our yard this weekend- but I'm not exactly sure!
