June Flowers..and a poem

Woman

she wanted to be a blade
of grass amid the fields
but he wouldn't agree
to be the dandelion

she wanted to be a robin singing
through the leaves
but he refused to be
her tree

she spun herself into a web
and looking for a place to rest
turned to him
but he stood straight
declining to be her corner

she tried to be a book
but he wouldn't read

she turned herself into a bulb
but he wouldn't let her grow

she decided to become a
a woman
and though he still refused
to be a man
she decided it was all
right

Vacations are for catching up...


With the new stain..looks brand new!!!!

This week I stripped, washed and re stained the deck..yikes I hope I don't have to do that again until the house is sold! It looks great though...FYI do not slop the stripping agent on your skin...


After stripping and cleaning

King Mountain


The woods
Marty and Daisy


















One of my oldest friends in all the world (Marty) hiked up King Mountain with me today. Daisy went with us..it's a spectacular..but steep 0 to 3200 ft. in 2.5 miles..hike..worth every drop of sweat. All the flowers are in bloom and it was warm and wonderful..where is the ben-gay? The deck is done pics tomorrow..
