Green beans in a flower arrangement!

I don’t know why I did not plant many flowers in the garden this year, but a few weeks ago I was still able to put together a nice arrangement with some weeds, corn tassels, basil that was blooming and……green beans still hanging from their vines!

Polish Flower Boxes

Wish I knew what kind of geraniums these are that were so popular in Krakow when I was there in 2008.  They were amazing!

Two is better than one

Mr. and Mrs. Crow going out for an early fall breakfast!

Grab a friend and head out into some early morning nature.  Feel the sun.  Breathe some crisp fall air.  Order some worms over easy and a side of beetle!
