Gypsies heading for summer

Kassy, free food!!!!

Good Job Kassy!!!!!! Festival Foods? does that mean you only can buy cotton candy, corn dogs and funnel cakes with it? LOL Bet everyone is getting antsy now, hope all goes well and Mom and baby breeze right through.

Bet I do.

How about this little clump of day lilies, Lynnie.

This is at the front of the house.

Very pretty Jim!

wow that's beautiful Jim! thank you! :) people must slow down as they drive past!

Well I guess you just showed me huh Jim! LOL Did you have to show the bigger and better pictures LOL Beautiful!!!!

Well take this Jim LOL black eyed susans I think

You have me on that one flowers, I don't have any of those. I did have this bloom.

Good grief your making me look bad Jim LOL What is that it is awsome! You do have a green thumb, my black one doesn't compare. Did you take lessons from Moon?

Flowers, I think you are right on that black-eyed Susan.

y'all are just showing off now LOL ok I found my 3rd clematis buried under the other 2....

who wants a yard pet?

Lynnie, what kind of critter is that?

I love the clematis. That is one flower we have not had any success with.

The pic I posted is a tiny rose. One is pink and the other is red. The red is one is one my grandmother moved from Mississippi in 1916. I found it on an old fence row about a quarter mile from where it was originally planted. The other I found by an old tenant house in our area. The trellis is an 18 foot wire cattle panel left over from my ranching days. Buried on end, bent it over and marked where it touched the ground, dug a trench and buried it. It is so pretty when it blooms. Only problem is I have to fight the powdery mildew on it every year.

If Lynnie lived in Louisiana, I'd say it was a nutria rat. Looks like some kind of badger to me.

I doesn't look mean enough to be a badger.

I love that Jim & Flowers are having a photo contest! Lynnie your clematis is pretty, is it a jackmanii?

I believe the creature is a groundhog. I don't know how they say it in MA though.

it is a groundhog, a baby one (also called woodchucks) it's the one I'm gonna send to you Smiley lol
no that's not a jackmanii, I forget what it is, this is the first time I've seen it since I planted it.

Ok, it looks like a baby. Is he the only one? Where is ma and pa?

Baby update 2wks old tomorrow 5lbs 2oz

Awwwww, Cute JJ ^_^

And were still waiting. I told mom that it's time for her to do jumping jacks. She said NO!

They also say that having sex will help the baby to come!

I was going to say that the other day Venice, but decided not to. LOL
But it does work. I have known a couple people who have used that method.
Oh well they will get her moving today. ^_^

I would blush but I am so old I can't remember what you are talking about.

"Red Neck Flower Pot"

LOL
What is that Jim? Looks like it has a little door in it.

I like it, it's cute!

(I think the clematis is called Warsaw Nike).

I bumped the planter that was by the mail box with the lawn mower and it was so old it burst. I needed something to repot the plants in but had nothing. I noticed the slow smoker that I had in the trash pile to haul off and decided to see if I could use it. I had to manufacture a bottom for it but it works real good. I thought it was kind of cute and eye catching.

Here is a shot of pirl #3. The first double I ever had.

It is eye catching and cute. I love it when ya can recycle things.
I just got a orange one that's suppose to be a double but it probably won't bloom til next year. :(

What happened? :(

Ya got the wilt, JJ?

I looked that up Smiley it does sound like what happened.
Guess I'll just cut it back to the ground and see what happens.
Thanks

JJ, oh no! We have a Wilty! What kind of plant was it?

Clematis, Venice and yep its a wilty

Poor Wilty. I bet he was beautiful in his prime!

Update.....

They are at the hospital and they started to induce about an hour or so ago.
If she doesn't have it by tomorrow night, the Doctor said she will do a C section. So tomorrow is B-day anyway you look at it here.

Thanks for the update was beginning to wonder.I can't believe they waited until evening to induce. I figured they would do it early morning.
That DR. must work your hours . LOL

Keep us informed..going to be a long night for son...hope all goes well.

Yes keep us posted Kassy, thats a long labor for sure, hope everything goes well.

Hey Jim, got me a new bloom today, think it come from Moon last year

LOL, I just read back on the posts and read the part about sex.
Now I know where they went wrong!!!! LOL
My son has been sleeping in the livingroom for the past month at least. He says that since they up-ed her meds she snores too much. So he has camped out in the living room.
I'm thinking he is kind of liking having his own sleeping space.......LOL

I hope everything goes well with the birth. Will keep them in our prayers.

I love the day lily. It is really pretty. I have a purple that has the triangle in it and I love it.

I have several new ones blooming and will post a picture of one.

This is pirl # 4.
