Mother Nature tries to claim the yard every year and we beat it back! Very little we can do with this shady hillside. I'm thinking white impatiens in the flowerbeds this year alongside the hostas, have never done all white before but I do think it will be pretty, especially at night. We'll see if I can be strong and not waiver!!Joy Tiltonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04183952085695405635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466688981552322075.post-72155453114026516182012-03-07T06:49:40.933-06:002012-03-07T06:49:40.933-06:00My Dad loved fishing, so nearly every weekend was ...My Dad loved fishing, so nearly every weekend was spent on the lake. He would get up at the crack of dawn and leave so if you wanted to go you had to roll out of the bed early! No complaining or you didn't get to go... I'd sleep the hour or so it would take to get down to Lake Taneycomo in southern Missouri. It was worth it to be out there as the sun came up and the fog would rise off the lake. I still love early morning!Joy Tiltonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04183952085695405635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466688981552322075.post-71081261393540911302012-03-07T06:43:26.979-06:002012-03-07T06:43:26.979-06:00Last summer's record heat kept us indoors, we ...Last summer's record heat kept us indoors, we couldn't stand the 100+ days either. When we lived in Texas back in the 1990's I fared much better. I like the changing of the seasons, get tired of one and then it's onto the next. That's why Texas didn't "fit" me!Joy Tiltonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04183952085695405635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466688981552322075.post-76890199093291273572012-03-07T06:40:24.191-06:002012-03-07T06:40:24.191-06:00Thanks so much, not a level place in the whole yar...Thanks so much, not a level place in the whole yard...

A few years back we had temps down in the teens after all the trees had leafed out in May... they fell off and had to start all over again. Many thought it would damage the trees but they just regenerated more leaves, nature is amazing!Joy Tiltonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04183952085695405635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466688981552322075.post-78692781874996196672012-03-07T06:32:49.387-06:002012-03-07T06:32:49.387-06:00So glad you came by for a visit, we love the shady...So glad you came by for a visit, we love the shady patios in the summer too. It makes it a little challenging to get something to grow other than ferns though. Out here Mother Nature is more in control than us, it stays pretty natural even though we try to tame it!Joy Tiltonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04183952085695405635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466688981552322075.post-20504778321203308832012-03-07T06:20:35.655-06:002012-03-07T06:20:35.655-06:00I love all your shady rest areas.

Would love curling up there with a good book and spending the day. Spring time is so promising after the windter blues.
