Steamy like the air has moisture you can almost wring out of it even when the sun is shining and the clouds are holding …
I love lilacs. I know it’s not lilac season, but it’s the season of free e-books for Scent of Lilacs.

Lilacs and More I love lilacs. When I was a kid, it was a rare yard in my area that didn’t have an old lilac bush. Nobody went out to garden shops back then to actually buy bushes. You went to somebody’s yard who had one and asked if you could get a start. Out would come the grubbing hoe …
The caption giveaway contest continues. You readers make me smile with all your imaginative captions. So here’s the new photo. What say you on this one? Tongue-Slurping Good I’m glad you had fun coming up with captions on Sunday’s photo. When I thought of possible captions, I was in the same camp as many of you with something delicious to …
