Free Flowers

This is Patsy's pink rose I got from Ridgedale last spring. I think it is going to live.
I also have about a dozen pieces of the same rose that I got last week that I am trying to root. Two or three of these still look viable.



This is another rose that I got from Patsy's Ridgedale yard last spring. It was growing to the right of the house in some shrubs. When Helen and I were there last week, there was a pink rose blooming in that space of the yard at least 15 feet up in a tree. I hope this is from that major climber.




This is my orange day lilly. I have hundreds growing in my yard and back behind the old house.





This is one of the day lillies I got from Patsy's place last spring. I have about 2 dozen or so of these. I thought they were probably just like mine, but they are golden yellow instead of orange striped like mine. I may have to go back this fall and get some more. I love free flowers that are mostly carefree after you get them started.

Back to the grind

It was back to work today. I really hated to go back this time, but it was not so bad. My knee did not bother me too much. The swelling has gone down a lot. And, my boss is on vacation this week so I just get to do whatever I want.

Helen called last night. She was enjoying her time with Rhea.

The hay boys got the hay all cut and the last of it baled today. It made a lot of hay. George thought it was great fun.
