Poppa's Yard

On Friday, I heard noise outside and went out to investigate.........

........ I went around to the front of the house.....

........... up the road past the house.......

........... past the Welcome Moose - the beehive lights up at night.....

............ past the pine trees - which are growing little baby pine cones..........

............. to the side yard, where.........

.... I found the source of the noise!  Poppa and Squeegie were out cutting the grass.  Back in the house....

........ I knew Taffy was still on the phone, so I continued on my tour around the house....

.... past Poppa's new barbeque....

.... past the dark pink peony bush (which Poppa tied up with string so that the rain wouldn't weigh down the large blooms -

....... he did that with all the peony bushes - you can see the string in this picture of the paler pink peonies)...

........... past the table of begonias in Phillip's Park............

......... past the little flower bed at the back, where he replaced the Rose of Sharon bush that didn't survive the winter with a little dappled willow..........

........ past the little shady flower bed where he stuck a couple of smiling daisies to brighten up the shady spot....

............ along the side of the garage..........

.... past the bird bath towards the front of the house again..........

......... where I found Poppa watering the flowers...........

............ so he could keep them looking.........

..............like this!
