Garden

I have finally decided that yes I am going to try and do a vegetable garden this year. I have not personally done a garden in a few years although Mom has done one almost every year.
It's roughly 10' by 15'so it's a small one. It is by our pond so it will get plenty on sun, the soil is also very sandy so I will need to make sure it doesn't dry out. I pulled out seeds today ( I am late I know ! )
to figure out what I want to plant and here are a few I decided on.

Yellow Squash
Cucumbers
Zucchini
Sunflowers
Cantaloupe

I might do a few flowers as well but I need to get the vegetable seeds in the ground first.

What Grandpa's are for

Last week when Jack was over he got to go on one of his first tractor rides.
He LOVES anything with a steering wheel ! So when Papa let him play on the tractor he was thrilled. You should have heard all the little boy noises that he was making! lol
Even better was Dad let him play with the lever that raises and lowers the bucket on the front of the tractor. The look in his eyes when Jack realized HE was making it move was just pure awe.

Dragonfly Wings

Here are some pictures that I took a few months back of a dragonfly that I found by our pond.
I was experimenting with the settings on y camera and these are some of the best that I came up with.
I mainly was playing with adjusting the exposure down a bit.

PETA is killing animals now ?

I couldn't believe it when I first heard about this. Not because I think that it is so wrong to put an animal down but because of the hypocrisy of PETA telling people they should not and then doing the exact same thing them selves.
