early morning pictures, Memories and such.

So, I keep forgetting to take pictures in the afternoon after a long day, so this morning I remembered during my before work walk about. This Magnolia tree was given to me May 2005. I did not choose the best spot to plant it, and then In August of 2005, Katrina chose to dump a large tree on top of it, so , its tall and spindly rather than wide and bushy like the other. but still It has a lot of sentimental value due to the person who gave it to me. I must take a picture of the larger tree that obviously liked the other side of the house better. several years younger but wayyyyy bigger.

AND down below, my VERY small patch of green beans. I'm just practicing these days. LOL

went back a few days later and finally remembered to take a daylight picture of the skinny magnolia,,, given to me Mother's day 2005. 

Mothers Day 2017

A gift from a very important person,, ORCHID?? love it but I've never had much luck with them. prefer OUTDOOR stuff. (never look a gift horse in the mouth?)

Oh, Yes, that's a little table/stool at times, that i build a while back from scrap lumber off crates from the Shop at the office. and some 2x2s.

A planted 2005 gift , i think i have a picture each year from this Magnolia tree gift.  it should be much fuller, but i didn't choose the best spot to plant, early learning days i think. Plus Katrina almost killed it that year, with trees on top of it. and THEN THE DEER thought it was a great place to scrub velvety antlers.
