Description

Photo captured late evening August 3, 2010. I'm so sorry for not replying lately, my o and p keys on my laptop quit working, and it quickly became a pain having to copy and past every word that contained those letters. I'm happy to say, I'm up and running and got rid of a few viruses to boot, so I should be able to get caught up soon. Have a great week everyone.
:) Tommy

I've had the same problem with my keyboard having a "mind" of its own. I swapped it out and the new one was fine for a while, and just recently started misbehaving again! Some compressed air seems to have helped. But I feel your pain. This is so pretty, Tommy. #8804954

Tommy E. Burgess August 04, 2010

Thanks everyone so much for the kind words and understanding. I appreciate both greatly. I'm really liking the two meadow gardens a lot because of how easy they are to take care of Amanda. Now the other beds and islands are not so much fun with the temps now over 100 and super humid. I've decided that besides watering and doing a few small sections weeding, that until the weather cools some, the weeds can wait. Have a wonderfvul Thursday everyone and happy shooting. :) Tommy #8806996
