This was my first time seeing Lamb's Ear plants. These were in the flower beds at Green Mountain Recreation Center. |

Day lilies are one of my favorite summer perennials. There were several beds of these around town. I took this picture near the ARC Thrift Store. |
Now I lay me down to sleep,
I pray
the Lord my soul to keep,
And if I
die before I wake,
I pray
the Lord my toys to break.
So none
of the other kids can use 'em....
Amen.
