I have not one purple iris. I have 'moved' all my bulbs, even Mamo's, which really makes me nervous. Including her peony! I had all the old spent azaleas pulled out. And, all of Ms. Bark's lilies. My beautiful Easter lily that my son gave me years ago. Making way for new azaleas and moving all the other stuff to sunnier beds. They are all in clumps, pots and buckets. Just hankering to be planted. As in . . . when the landscaper gets the beds ready . . . the one that was scheduled to be here last month . . .So . . . I took a walk in the woods. Which is actually only feet from the back door. And, I found some purple. Have no idea what it is except that it is a wildflower. And, remember May Apples?
Hello World, we are jcp and FCP. Sisters. We live in the same state but not quite close enough for lunch. Recalling an era when the arrival of newspapers and magazines via snail mail was met with much anticipation, we remember our grandparents excitedly reading, re-reading, and cherishing every page and each printed word. It was a time when the Navy's news of our daddy's emergency surgery arrived in the form of a letter, and three excruciating weeks would pass before his parents received the word that his condition had improved. Fast forward to the advent of email when our parents easily kept in touch with their grandson serving in the Air Force, as well as another studying abroad. The Internet was envisioned more than 50 years ago but the WWW wasn't created until 1989, so our grandparents missed the opportunity to wirelessly connect with the rest of the family. Or the world. But they would have loved it. So, our blog is an attempt to stay in touch and have a little fun along the way. Just a photo to share how our day is going. And we may mix it up now and then with a little sisterly challenge. Or a theme. A little something familiar that evokes a smile, or a remember when. ...A chance to play. Welcome to our sandbox.
