Actually, after 2″ of rain last week, things will green up, at least briefly. I’m kind of hoping a few wild flowers will bloom, altho’ it is a little late in the year for some of my favorites.

Thanks, Funny Chick.
My son told us the fire ants swarmed at their place this weekend (since the rain) and he had to go get some stuff to kill them…he and his wife both got stung several times. Seems like everything comes out once we get a little moisture.

The only cute bugs are lady bugs and LB bugs.
The squiggle is a snake- heh-heh- (sinister laugh).

EEEEWWWWWW!!!! I hate snakes more than I hate bugs, deathly afraid of the things … (shiver) … I’ll just be standing here on top of the desk for awhile …

Happy Chick aka Harriet says:

Sorry, CAS, but those creepy things are just part of life in the hot country. I think I hate scorpions most of all, even more than spiders and snakes. Double YUCK!!!

You can come down off the desk. I don’t see any creepy crawlies right now. Heh-heh. LOL

If … you’re … sure … Harriet, … okay … I’ll get down now. But if you see one of those icky things (shiver), I’ll be back on the desk in a heartbeat.

Happy Chick, this is lovely – except for those creepy crawlies…and the snake! haven’t seen any rattlers yet this year, but I think the warm weather is finally starting to come. Won’t be long before our property starts looking like your pick!

Thanks ladies!
Sue, we’ve already had to kill a rattler in our yard…can’t risk it with the pets and our grandaughter playing out there. I know they have a place in the ecology, but rattlesnake bites are so very dangerous.

I finlly got my big century plant picture to load. This thing is about 6′ diameter, and at least 5′ tall. Not sure how long this one has been growing, but if it ever blooms, it will die afterward.

Nite, y’all. Have to go check on my grandaughter and husband—they are painting the birdhouse they built last nite.
