You'd be disappointed with how little I actually go swimming (<I>it IS pretty chilly, still...plus, sharks and stuff</I>)...but it's always fun to stop by the beach and look at the water for a few minutes!Greghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14337889899066280559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12541532.post-72493160813500478112008-07-10T17:07:00.000-04:002008-07-10T17:07:00.000-04:00Oh gawd, this is such a great blog, I could keep r...Oh gawd, this is such a great blog, I could keep reading and reading and I have a ton of work to do. LOL LOL BUT I was scrolling down and I had to stop here when I saw the beach and the sea and oooooh darn,,,lucky you!!<BR/>LOL It is SO beautiful! I go swimming even tho it is freezing! Well, at least it is in Maine. You may be a bit warmer there. Just remember to always say "hi" to the ocean for me!!!

Hen is a female chicken. Nope. Clover is much better, especially since he/she likes to eat it so much. IMHO. <BR/><BR/>I love hydrangeas, especially the blue hues. I planted a hydrangea a couple of years ago, but a guy we hired to cut the grass mowed it down.

I don't mind that so much, since they bloom so late in the year, all he's really done is prune it back so it will be lower and bushier...which I rather like the look of. (<I>Sshh, I've tricked them into working for me now...</I>)<BR/><BR/>It certainly is the time of efforts rewarded and faith renewed out there, Butch. So many flowers now coming on, as those many seedlings continue to reach blooming size! <BR/><BR/>I'll need a bigger memory card for all the photos!Greghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14337889899066280559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12541532.post-8587717441083175792008-07-08T22:26:00.000-04:002008-07-08T22:26:00.000-04:00Those wee bunnies look like they are at home in yo...Those wee bunnies look like they are at home in your garden.

We'll see what happens. <BR/><BR/>I was excited to see them as single plants at the nursery, and not part of some larger (<I>and much pricier</I>) hanging basket of four or five plants crowded together.
