More flower photos




Here are some photos of various flowers in our yard. I really prefer perennials because they come back every year.

Here is a picture of one of my favorite hanging baskets. It hangs on the back of our house on the deck.

Our garden


With the economy as it is, we decided to increase the size of our garden. We have had a garden every year for the last 15 years, but this year's garden seems all the more important since our economy is becoming so expensive. I don't know about anyone else, but our food bill has gotten bigger as the price of gas has gone up.

We enjoy gardening anyway and this year is no exception. It is looking good despite all of the rain we've had.

I also like to plant flowers as well. I really enjoy seeing something grow from seed to plant.

Going to school


Hi everybody,
I guess you would say that I am a little old to be going to school, but here I am 49 years old and going for a bachelor's degree. I graduated from CCV in 2007 with an associate's degree in liberal studies. With some encouragement, I've decided to go on to Johnson State College for elementary education studies so that I can become an elementary education teacher. I have 4 more semesters left and then I am all done. I am looking forward to graduating. I only hope that there will be a job available when I do!
