Pink Lady Slippers

Pink Lady Slipper

Rare and beautiful "Pink Lady Slipper"

The pink lady slipper does not bloom every year, however, I cannot determine it's pattern.

Sometimes apple trees or black berries have "Bumper" crops every other year, but it seems like these bloom for a few years in a row, and then for a year or two or even more, they don't.

Typically we find them between Mothers Day and Memorial Day. We have never picked them or tried to transplant them, however, we do protect the area of land where they have been known to grow.

Our son and his friends know not to drive their big mud trucks or four wheelers in this spot. In the year they do bloom, there are usually only 2 or 3 blooms. Last year there were two. We enjoy and admire their beauty.

There may not always be a rose to stop and smell,

but there is always something from Nature to

enjoy and appreciate!

Lily in Bloom - More than meets the EYE

lily in bloom

Lily in Bloom!

I awoke in the night with this tune in my head .... "Da Da DAH More than meets the eye

Da DA DAHHHHH.." The TRANSFORMER song!!!

Daffodils to brighten a dull day!

I wrote this poem : I know - Don't quit my "day job" ? You do know that I'm a realtor!!!!

Hold On

Hold on to each other dear

For year after year

After she is grown

and out on her own

You'll still have each other

to live life together!

The time flys by so fast

with memories that last

When she comes back

For love you'll not lack

Hold on to each other

As you live life together!
