Read my heart-warming story based on events I lived about learning what it means to love while caring for an aging parent.

We opened the blinds to find these honeybees swarming the hummingbird feeder this morning. They left after all the food was gone.

Today, I happened upon a volunteer Red Mulberry tree growing (snogging) with my declining 300 year old elm. So many volunteer trees have grown up around the elm to help it hold ground. It’s a wonder!!

Bee watering stations should be pea gravel barely covered in fresh water so the bees won’t drown.

This re-purposed margarita salt dish is perfect!

Meet “Samson,” the stray Tom who made his appearance at my Backdoor a couple of days ago. He makes #3 we’ve adopted. Neuter, wormed, flea bath, vaxes, antibiotics…there goes a thousand bucks!!😜
