My flowers in September

Quick Fire hydrangea, beautiful all year.

 Black eyed susan vine.  I nursed it all year, finally it is blooming.

 Tall ageratum from Graye's Greenhouse.  I love it.

 Most insane cockscomb

 The one to watch, it is now about fifteen inches across.  It stands up even after wind and downpours.

 Solidago fireworks

bumper crop of Sweet Annie...

 Bulls Blood Beets and you can see turnip greens behind.

and a surprise flower this morning.  A white Iris.  These are some of my favorites.  We had lots of flooding last night .  Our streets do that in heavy rain . One guy went canoeing!  Hope your day is blessed with flowers.

Apple time

We went to Apple Charlie's on Sunday..

They have pony and hay rides , apple picking $20 a bag, farm animals and a flea market. You can walk through and watch them make the cider.   It was a beautiful day and there was a big crowd.

Do you know .. how much is a peck?  We didn't, but I wanted some Mutsus (the big green ones). a peck bag was $5.00.

  We also got Empire, McIntosh, Gala, Delicious for $1 a bag of about 8 or 9.  No bad ones.

Donuts were $10 a dozen and cider $10 a gallon.  At first glance I would think the prices were a
little steep, but when you see how many workers it takes to put on the show, I guess  they have to be.

I only had one donut.  Happy Monday everyone.

Honoring 9/11 victims in Taylor, Michigan

I didn't get to see him at this busy intersection.  I would have like to have said "thank you".

John has changed his status...

Jaxon is the little brother, that makes me the big brother.  We are so happy, came to us on Friday, the 24th. Jaxon is my fourth great-grandchild.

This is my life..

Sold (to me) Town Peddler Craft & Antique Mall, Livonia, MI

These are what I bought at the tent sale.  I don't know what the crate will be used for but I liked it.  They said it was a drawer but I thought not.

The black cat had a broom that she must have used to go through a hurricane, so she was priced "as is".  I will show you her after I finish a "do-over".

I am staying away from that tent today for fear I will find more stuff I just have to have.  It rained all day yesterday but people still shopped and browsed.  One of the dealers set up an umbrella shuttle between the store and the tent.  Everyone was friendly and helpful.

Still three more days ..maybe I will see you there!

Flowers for Jeannie's Birthday.

Daughter P.J. took a bucket of my flowers to work for a party.  I can't take credit for this arrangement but I did GROW them.  The butterfly really sets them off!  Here at home, I have real butterflies galore on the zinnias and the butterfly bushes!

Today is the Tent Sale at Town Peddler Craft and Antique Mall, Wednesday till Sunday!  I will probably come home with more than I sell.  Happy Wednesday.
