Wild life at quack flat





As we were sitting and enjoying the scenery today we were entertained with some of our guests here at quack flat.This goose loves to look over my garden on my shop roof I think he is waiting for the strawberries to get ripe.Out front the humming birds and squirrels are having lunch .And yes the guard dog buddy is keeping one eye on the whole place just in case his food dish might get filled.

I fell in love





This past weekend my son gave me a present I enjoyed very much.He asked for his dads help with driving the John Deer tractor he rented and I JUMPED at the chance.I did get a bit wore out but it was worth it as we got the front yard ready for the next stage in this new house.I had my new trailer done so I brought the little tractor I own with me and we did the finish work with mine.But I fell in love with that Deer and if I was younger I would have one of thoes and do custom work.Here is a few pics of the work and the house .by the way I now know and understand Stone Hinge they did it to get thoes rocks out of their garden.........Craftywulf

Some of our handy work on quackflat





Here are some of the flowers we have growing here in the new gardens.I was surprised this spring when we found the California poppies coming up as I did not plant them but the seeds found their way to the garden.The bench and flowers are one of the places we like to sit and have a cup of coffee and take in the ferns and spring flowers.In the back yard we have what I call pin wheels now this is not the right name but I like the name.We have some four hundred feet of side walk that takes you around the gardens and in a walk we take at least once a day
