Sunday Has Arrived And We Are Ready!

Remember: You may think that in life, a lot of things happen to you along the way. The truth is, in life, you happen to a lot of things along the way.

OK, we ar ready to face the day with a smile!  That way, no one will really know what we think!  Paul decided to go for a walk and part way done, he remembered that last night Sue did not have a great dinner so the walk was cut a little short and Paul headed home after 45 minutes or so.

It was a shorter than normal walk but sufficient

Why are roses so amazing?

A rose is a rose is a rose…whatever that means

One of our neighbors (two blocks away) has a flower forest for a front yard and it is quite amazing!

Love their front yard

So, coming home Paul stopped to admire this little beauty but what it is?  So, to the iPhone App Store Paul goes and downloads a new app to find out what are the names of plants.

What in the world is this?

Paul tip-toes upon the neighbors lawn, sneaks up on the flower, centers it in the screen and presses the button.  A few moments later “ORANGE LICHEN” appears. Alas, the software was wrong!  It was a Yarrow which is a  hardy and versatile perennial. yarrow has showy flower heads composed of many tiny, tightly-packed flowers rising above clusters of ferny foliage. The flowers may be yellow, red, pink, or a number of shades in between.  Yarrow is pest-resistant, drought-resistant, attracts butterflies, and is excellent for cutting and drying. It’s also an aromatic herb which has many healing properties!

Paul has a new app… Take a picture of a plant and ask the wizard of iPhone… This time the wizzard was WRONG!

We watched a bit of TV and them Paul headed for the garage to do some stacking of boxes.  We are going to buy a storage shed so moving everything to be store into one place gives us a better idea of what we need to buy! Looks like a 6×10 ought to do just fine!

In the late afternoon we headed to Old Ranch for the monthly dinner dance which was attended by 29 people and we had a blast!

About Paul

Just an old retired guy trying to finish out my last years on this planet. I lost my best friend and wife in early 2020. I was blessed again by reconnecting with Dr. Mary Côté, a long-time friend. Mary and I got married July 28th, 2021, and are enjoying life together and plan to spend the rest of our lives being a blessing to our friends and family.
