The Reappearance

One fall about 4 years ago, Danielle decided she was going to move to Nova Scotia in the spring. That November we received a big box of bulbs from her to hang onto till she got here - tulips, daffodils, glads, iris and lilies. The glads went into the fridge - easy. Because it was November, the ground was already partly frozen. Kelly poked the rest all into one garden back under the trees in Little Stonehenge.

We still getting surprises! This iris came up once before and I neglected to mark it - have been waiting a couple of years for it to show up again. At least now it's a nice little patch and I can send some back to Danielle AND move some into my garden.

Introducing Little Stonehenge

Kelly has a propensity for moving big rocks around.  Since mid-summer he has been excavating the woods behind our garage.  Somewhere along the way we started calling it 'Little Stonehenge'.  What started out as a big pile of rocks has become, well, a more organized pile of rocks.  This upright rock above stands at the foot of the flipflop path.  He has it propped up to look like a console from the bridge of the Starship Enterprise, or perhaps a DHD from StarGate.  I have to admit that I think many of his ideas are a little nuts but they always turn out, umm, interesting at the least.  This whole area is still under construction but a few plants are in and next year we should see a few blooms among the rocks.
