Yard tour


When I took an ice cream cake to dad for Father's Day he had one request before I left. He wanted me to take a photo of the beautiful lilies and the fluorescent dark pink geraniums. He also wanted to get the peonies documented, but they are on the other side of the porch and not in this photo.
This has been such a rainy, cool spring it's nice to see the bright-colored flowers. The weather has certainly been good for them.
Dad moved some of the day lilies from one side of the porch to this side last year. They are thriving. Way to go, Dad.
The yard looks great. Even the irises are blooming in the back.

Bearly visible

This was about the best I could do with the bears I had to work with on our recent trip to the park. But some of the other people at this Tower Falls bear jam probably had closeups. Those people who insist on getting into a bear's face are CRAZY.
This was a Memorial Day weekend trip, our first this year. We've been busy inside with multiple home improvements so we haven't been out driving around and viewing wildlife too much.
But now that the latest project is done - cross our fingers - we'll get out more.
