My Turtle's Head was unremarkable this year, but the reflection in the birdbath is pretty cool.

~ I'm Thinking Tomato Rosemary Focaccia ~

One of six plants. I can't find enough people to give away these tomatoes. As much as I didn't want to this year -- canning may be in my future yet.

~ Growing Apple Pie ~

This apple tree is eight years old and has been producing fruit for the last seven.
It is about three to four weeks from having ripe apples.
Our beloved Basenji's, (Jessie and Dan) ashes have been spread under and around this tree.

I wait all year for this plant to bloom!

~ Cherry Cobbler #6 ~

~ A Welcomed Rainy July Day ~

A rainy day takes the color of nature to a new level.
And the smell of rain is intoxicating.
