We had some pretty nice rain a couple days ago. Now everything smells so sweet and fresh. I've already got weeds sprouting on the bare dirt in some of the tortoise pens.

Rain is a welcome change from the 80's you've been experiencing, though, huh?

I just wished I had gotten those orchard grass seeds tossed out in the lot before it came though.

At the doctor with my daughter, Madison.

You would never have guessed that she had heart surgery at 9 days old, she will be 6 months old tomorrow.

She is looking good! I have a grandbaby who had the same sort of a start. Just was so hard for me to imagine such a surgery on such a little tiny body. He is a bit older then your child and has another surgery planned for next spring, as he wasn't quite heavy enough in August and they don't perform those surgeries during the winter (cold season) unless they have to.

Jacqui: You haven't mentioned your grand baby in a while. Is it going ok with him?

The Netherlands
Beautiful country! I had this picture in my mind of a very cold country, however those folks sitting outside eating, are all in their shirt sleeves. Thanks for sharing your pictures with us. It helps us get to know other countries.

You're very kind thank you.
No not cold at all.
But it can be, very cold and very hot.
Seasons vary:)

We have a temperate climate.
Warm Summers and moderate Winters.

We have different geographical areas.
We have beautiful Nature reserves conjoined to make it easier for wildlife to connect to each other and move around.

We have sand dunes which are a pretty sight with the Sea, we have Moors and Caverns. The Netherlands is a beautiful place to Live. Here are some pictures of my home town. It is a city, not very big compared to
Metropolitan standards, almost a village. And we have industry agriculture and this area is known for its fruit exports. Jams and jellys:)

Love the butterfly. Is that a picture of you? What kind of fruit?

He is doing fine. A bit small and slow growing. He gets his next surgery in the spring. Otherwise a normal little brat. ;0

Still raining, but the sun has broken through as I sit here, but no rainbows. :(
