Thank you!

Yes, I’ve been given large bottles of Oxy after surgery — certainly enough to cause addiction!

Phoenix looks like an expert napper! Too bad about the trees. I hope they plant plenty to replace them!

Great pictures. It still looks lush and green there. And congrats on your granddaughter. Very exciting! (And I’m not far behind you!)

How fun to have extended grandma time, @elizabethbit!

Im sure your grandchild will inherit a wonderful legacy, @silvertop!

Heal well, @tarazkp! You sound so brave and strong. Or at least determined to accept what needs to happen and roll with it. I’ve had a few surgeries in recent years, and I find that is an excellent approach.

So much good stuff here — I’ll have to read the rest later. But I had to laugh out loud at your comment about RFK. Show me the receipts. He looks crazy for free. 😂

Westminster is lovely! I love the virtual travel I can do by visiting blogs from around the world. A video was circulating on social media in which Charlie is heard saying it was worth it for some people

Ha ha... you're still looking for the exit!? I hope you find your way out eventually. I love sunflowers. I've got a garden full of them, and the bees, birds, butterflies and squirrels are all feasting

Do let me know, @silvertop. I think mine has the exact same problem.

Yes, I'm not sure I quite realized it before, but Minnesota is definitely a happy place for hydrangeas! I remember we had them in the yard where I grew up in Oregon too. They were the white kind and we

That first light of morning must be spectacular. I'm a night owl, myself, getting to bed just a few hours before you're up and out with your camera! I love that first photo with the boats SO much. It's
