Stroll along with me

The weather has been absolutely gorgeous this week.  Lots of sunshine, a gentle breeze and not a wildfire in sight...at least not around our home.  It has been almost perfect so I wanted to grab my Big Girl camera and invite you to come on a stroll around the place.  ALLONS-Y (let's go)!

The ornamental Crabapple Tree is really showing out this year.  She always does, though.

Beautiful flora!  I am always intrigued by the random pink blossoms and the green leaves mixed in with the white.  So are the bees!

Remember the tree that fell a couple of weeks ago...during all the chaos with the wildfires?  This is how it looks now.  I found a guy who came and cut it up and hauled it off for only $400!  He did an outstanding job and I will definitely be using him again.  My husband wanted to leave the stump...said I could make a ginormous mushroom or fairy house out of it.  Well, we'll see.  If I'm lucky maybe the fairies will do the work for me!

Pretty tiny blooms...you say weeds...I say food for the bees!  These are the tiniest things but they have quite the impact when they are in bloom all over the yard.

Oh look!  Two of the four pampered pooches!  Geez!  I wish I could stretch like that, don't you?

More bee food!  I don't know what this is.  I suspect it is chickweed.  I know for sure it must be really tasty because the bees love it...so do the deer!

These white blossoms are new to the place this year.  Probably blew in from the South.  They are pretty so...Thanks, Texas!

Ahhh!!!  Dandelions...or future "Fairy Wishes".  I love the yellow flowers even if my husband says it's just weeds.  Pshaw!  More bee food and that's a good thing!  Wait!  Did you see, that!?  I thought I saw something fly into that tiny door!  Look closer...maybe it was a fairy friend!

Oh the imagination of a 62 year old kid-at-heart Granny!  LoL

I hope you enjoyed our stroll...and a bit of silliness.  One is never too old to be silly or to daydream, my love.  Just laugh and make the most of it!  I hope you will join me again and maybe next time we will see some of the deer neighbors or my birdie friends.

Grace and Peace,

Pam
