    I went out with Chance this morning and there was a hummingbird moth like Glenda's in the yard, flitting all over so I got the camera and tried to get a picture. I did, but it was too blurring to post. I did take a few other pictures but deleted most of them. My yard is such a mess and between the weather and my knee not much is getting done about it. Today it is hot and humid and not an outside day at all. Maybe later if it doesn't scatter showers around here. Yesterday there was only a few drops here and there.
    First flowers,

    The little mimosa tree that I thought died is doing great. The creeping jenny in the hanging basket is doing good too. dooley

    Your mimosa looks so healthy and bushy Dooley - thank goodness it survived. I love the intense blue of your morning glory and your geraniums are doing really well.

    Your Creeping Jenny is doing well Dooley. I bought some for the first time this year and have it planted in a pot with other flowers. It has grown so much that it has reached the bottom of the pot and is creeping along the ground!

    I suppose I could mention that what you grow outside, we grow inside. I'm a tad envious.
