| He's certainly grown!! |

| Canola crop being sprayed. |
 |
| My purchased hanging pot for this year--my Mother's Day gift to myself. Still looks beautiful!! One of my own planted pots is in the background. |
 |
| The delphinium forest--they love sun and heat and are thriving this year!! |
 |
| Poppy--and in the right color scheme!! |
 |
| First 2 red raspberries--there are tons of berries to ripen and pick!! |
 |
| Corn is doing very well. |
 |
| The delphiniums by Rover's grave are over 7 feet tall this year!! |
 |
| My first grapes!! But I don't think there will be enough for a glass of wine, let alone a bottle!! |
 |
| The giant teal colored dragonflies are zipping around the yard, catching mosquitos and sunning themselves in the patio. Can you spot all 3? |
 |
| Love!! |

I didn't know Rover was buried in the yard! If I did I forgot! how wonderful he is in the yard and not alone somewhere.
I love the poppies! are they easy to grow? I might get some for nest year.
and grapes!! adorable little grapes, i hope you get enough for at least a glass of wine ;)
Oh, yes Rover is here. The only other place my mom would have had him be, would have been on the farm. All these years there's been a raised rockery over the spot. When Duffy was a little pup, his first summer, he would go over there a lot, and I always thought that maybe he sensed something. Maybe silly on my part, but who knows? Poppies are very easy to grow--too easy!! They seed themselves and will take over everything!! As for the grapes, well if not some wine, then a handful to eat!! When they ripen, they aren't too bad to eat!!
