I thought there would be one more day before two of the chrysalis hatched. It was pouring rain when I woke up and found these two sitting at the bottom of the cage. I hung the cage on the back porch for

This summer, the gardens have been so beautiful surrounding our home. Each week seems to bring out more color than the weeks before, offering us so much beauty to enjoy. This Dahlia was a splurge for me

We have a "White Christmas" this year. Over 8" of snow has fallen this week and brrrrr, it's cold outside. The wind chills have gotten to -7°F. or -21°C. I don't mind saying it is frightful
