The other new additions:

My fiancée's replacement of her aging 2004 Malibu (major driveline issues at 91,000 miles.  The kind I'm not able to fix)

I finally got around to replacing the original tires on my '02 Dakota.

Rather large agave that lives by my pond in the summer months:

Glads planted because the color matches the wedding colors & we hope to use the blooms in some of the arrangements for the wedding:

Some lillies I planted with I bought the house.  They smell so strong when in full bloom you can smell them when you pull up in the driveway

Some tropical I don't know the name of that also lives by my pond:

Won't be long until fresh Punkin' pie can be made:

Hope you enjoyed my boredom ~

Nah, just cruising along with my trusty D70 for the camera.  The cat is a Hemingway, and his name is Pablo because Pablo Picasso made a sculpture for Hemingway because of the special cats around his house ~

Very nice!!! 8)

Rubrum Lily (it's the beautiful, but stinky lily)

Everything's looking great!!  I'm partial to pumpkin plants.  Brought back a bunch of leftover pumpkins from Punkin Chunkin (in Delaware) and let them rot in the front yard.  This year I was blessed with 3 plants!  The one's huge with about 4 pumpkins on it!!!  Been lovin' it!!

You really have a green thumb!  pond, plants, kitty, everybody good.







Hey, you've got a new camera......and bobspapa lost a camera.  Coincidence???

Great cat, great garden [thumbsup]

The pink lily that smells so strong is either a Stargazer or Mona Lisa Lily. Absolutely great plants but the pollen stains the crap out of your clothes.

Foliage is looking good.

zltful - you're correct.  Rubrum's petals come back more than stargazer's.  Beautiful flower!!! (love the freckles!)

Thanks for the comments folks, I do enjoy growing stuff.  I started two grape plants from my late grandfather's very very old vines too.  I'm hoping the pumpkins are just right for halloween this year.  I've got tons of other stuff growing, like 5 different varieties of peppers too ~
