Ketch-Up Day

 

Obviously, the vote doesn't apply to non US residents, but the greeting does:)  😀

AND

I know Spook Day is in the rearview mirror but I really enjoyed family and friends' costumes and thought you might too.

AND

The irises continue to bring me joy.  Apparently, this little honey bee thinks so too:)

Ketch-Up Day

 

How are you? Got your spook on?

I got a new toy.  A leaf blower/vac/mulcher.  It's not mega powerful, but it's light weight, perfect for a senior citizen and makes great mulch.

 

 IN THE GARDEN

The white Irises continue to bloom and delight me.  And the little holly tree has some red berries on it:) AND the young trees and razzmatazz (muscadine) grape vine are still holding their own:)

 AND

Back when Frank was a young'un and his buddy Penny was still alive. 

AND

As always, if you aren't on the bday list and would like to be, let me know. Conversely, if you are on the list and would like to be removed, let me know that too.
 

 That's it for today, Blogger Buds. Hope to cyber-see you tomorrow:)

Ketch-Up Day

 

How are you? Watcha doing?

I'm winterizing, trimming back bushes, and mowing. Whew.

These are the newbies that needed winterizing.

 My razzmatazz grapevine.

My mandarin orange. I call it my Tree of Life.  You may recall, I found a baby bird sitting under it this  spring, then sadly this fall I found an injured starling, that I thought for sure was going to make it and didn't, lying next to it.  

I hope the tree survives. It's not in the proper zone.  We'll see come spring.

 

And the latest addition, my Granny Apple.  It has a nice sturdy trunk. My only concern: It arrived like this.  Apparently too much water held in its roots on its journey from Oregon to North Carolina.  Another we'll see come spring.
