Summer Memories


My tomato plant provided temporary housing for this grasshopper.  He enjoyed himself on the green leaves, but left the tomato alone....thank goodness!

As the fall season quickly comes to an end, I look back at the images of golden leaves like a silken carpet covering the earth . Il tempo vola.

My Excellent Adventure


This is my first entry in the blogosphere. I have just become a Master Gardener and have plans to take my knowledge to new levels .  Prepare yourselves as I cultivate my thoughts. 

This magnificent tree peony was a gift from a neighbor .  It blooms for only a week, but the memory of its beauty will last forever.
