I found this little red beauty in my garden this morning. Tiny, but perfect in its simplicity.


I love rocks. I love the texture, the simple shapes. Doesn’t take much to make me smile, does it! Crazy as this may sound, I’d just as soon have a pretty bowl full of rocks than a bowl full of diamonds!


This creature guards my yard from predators. Think he’ll fool anyone?


A rather gauzy view from the gazebo.


This little rabbit holds court just behind my pond. You can barely see his head now, the garden is growing so fast! I’ll have to clip it back before it obscures him altogether!

  2. I saw a comment by you over at Rue’s blog and thought I’d pop in.

    The ‘da*n thing thing with the board’ that you were trying to remember is called a QUIJA Board…smiles. I sincerely enjoyed my stroll thru your garden. (I’m posted in RMS and did have rabbit figurineS once in my front yard which is now under upgrade construction; have donated a tin salamander to my dtr. for her b/yard, and love rocks like you do.) Guess we have more than just our name in common. -Brenda- (mrsben) HAVE A BEAUTIFUL DAY!

  3. I believe he likes hiding there. He can see everything going on.

    What a nice, quiet and lovely spot.

  6. Love that gazebo view. I am wondering if we can do something like that around one of our umbrellas.

  8. Beautiful!

    But I think I’d rather have a bowl of diamonds.

    If you ‘love’ rocks, you would love it here! LOL We had two HUGE truck loads dumped here a few years back.

  17. I love a bowl of rocks, too. In fact I have a few in an anchor bowl at the lake. We collected them on our Michigan trip.

  18. You inspire me to keep my eyes open and look for the delights right around me. And I love rocks, too! We have rocks stacked around my so-called rose garden, ones we picked up on our drives. We liked to get rocks from everywhere we went.

    xxxooo
