2 years!!

I quit smoking today two years ago. It flew by really and I don't even miss them any more, I don't like the 20 pounds I took on but I am better off fat than dead. This picture has nothing to do with the topic except I have a better chance of seeing my son (on the right) skiing with his nephew someday like this (Kevin his uncle is on the left)

Spider webs be gone, Poof!

He's such a cute kitty but that does not mean he is smart

See that window on the second story? That is my bedroom

The other day, Harley was laying in the window, I stopped and gave him a scratch, he rolled around like cats do and whoops, there he fell, the screen gave out and he landed in my garden
He took off like a bat outta HE double hockey sticks and ran up to the deck

What my dogwood looks like now

What my dogwood looked like before the December ice storm

I can't believe we cut it back to nothing in Decemeber and it grew back, I was pretty happy to see that this summer

NY Part Two

A mean big ugly spider lives on my porch and puts her webs on my bike

I took these for Cheryl, this guy walked around with 2 on his shoulders and his girlfriend had the little two on her shoulders

They had a civil war re-enactment this weekend and a wood boat parade, I forgot my camera for the boat parade but I walked over to see the field

Can't get any better than this...

The lake was smooth this morning

Corey mastered one ski this weekend!!

There's no stoppin him now




Thats' it, he's a pro

Happy Friday

I'm growing more sunflowers next year. I didn't realize how fun it is to watch them grow and how big they get.

Some sort of seed that sprouted, it's prickly

this birdhouse is full of pincher bugs and woody wood pecker found out about them, he's been there pokin at it all morning knocking them lose and then having breakfast

Monday after work, phew I'm tired

I came home and found this hummingbird moth at the butterfly bush, they don't get as scared as the humming birds but are not even birds any how

Harley is really diggin the cat mint now

This came from Lori's garden, she gave me the tag and it said "Attracts Hummingbirds" well let me tell you, they are going NUTS for it

I think it's pretty cool that the bird spread these seed and I got a whole bunch of sunflowers. This is my least favorite garden, Ray wants to add on here some day so I kind of ignore it as it shows

Butterfly bush in NY

Ny weekend

Roberts Friend/Cousin Eric came up for the weekend

Ray trying to get Robert up waterskiing

Again and again and again

Almost there....

Yeah he's up!! Not too long, he fell, maybe next time

but they did get to feed this duck

He came so close

Full Moon

Here's what I got so far, the tree's are in my way...
