A View From A Window -- Or In My Case -- A Door


A while back, Jane from The Maple Syrup Mob began a weekly Thursday post of a photo taken from the same window.  It should be interesting to see how the scenery changes throughout the year.   She invited anybody who wants to join in to--well, join in.  So, here I am, playing catch up, as usual so I have two weeks worth of photos.  I will honestly try to do better this week but, in all fairness to me, this last Thursday I had to chop pickles and make dressing and quietly supervise the bird roasting or rather smoking -- my hubs does a mean turkey in the kamado.

Anyway, here we go.  These photos are taken from my back door, with me inside, of my back garden.  It is  a little shabby right now because the weather was so horrible over the summer and almost everything went dormant and now it thinks it is spring and everything is coming out -- including the weeds.  There is no keeping up with the weeds.  The first three photos were taken Thursday week.




The next two photos were taken this past Thursday, Thanksgiving Day.








I don't see much difference between the two except I think the hollies have more berries in the more recent photos.  Can't wait to see what is left of the garden this next week after these horrible winds we are having.

It was a beautiful day on Thursday. However, yesterday, not so much. It looked like it could have snowed! We do have cannas out there which did better than I thought. I am used to the foliage we had in South Texas which is very tropical -- we are a little bit too far north for most of it to grow here but the cannas did well. Next year the ones in the pots are going into the ground! We need unobstructed tricycle space.

Gill -- it is greening up now, late in the season, but this summer everything looked awful what with the high temps and drought.

 Ok, so we visited our cardiologist yesterday to get the lay of the land for the Hubs.  Seems there is an issue with one of the grafts from ...
