I’m sitting here, looking at my calendar for the month of April and realize why I’m tired. I thought March was busy, but April’s activities were a very different sort. This is not a Six on Saturday blog today, but I’m throwing in some garden pictures with paragraphs that have nothing to do with the … Continue reading April 30, 2024: Where Did the Month Go?

SIX ON SATURDAY: What was I Thinking?!
I let a full month of Spring slip by without posting a Six on Saturday. Yes, it was a busy month, but March had five Saturdays. My excuse was that my only free Saturday was just two weeks after my February post, and I thought I'd have more to share as the month went on. … Continue reading SIX ON SATURDAY: What was I Thinking?!
SIX ON SATURDAY: Spring is Here!
I have more than six photos to show you, but they're grouped into six categories. We find ways to bend the rules, don't we?

Sometimes we're out while it's still dark, but the sun is beginning to come up a little … Continue reading SIX ON SATURDAY: Happy 2024!
Six On Saturday: Something different
I feel like I should start this blog with, "Well, it's been a quiet week in Lake Woebegon." Does anyone remember A Prairie Home Companion on Saturday evenings?

And I'll still share … Continue reading Six On Saturday: Something different
Six On Saturday: But Who’s Counting?
I’m so grateful for the recent rain and cooler weather. It’s looking more like autumn around here, which gives me some new energy to cross things off my “To Do” list. As Shep and I walk around the yard each morning, I inspect my camellias, watching the buds swell, and rejoicing when I see a … Continue reading Six On Saturday: But Who’s Counting?
