Summer in Utah











I worked out side this morning on my yard, it is suppose to get very hot this week, and since I wanted it done before that hits, I decided to do it early this am. I took pictures of some of the things growing in the yard, I am very happy with the way the yard looks this year.








I am also very glad to be home from traveling last week. We had to go tend to Bruce's mom again, and finally have put her in a home that she will probably be in for the rest of her life. She has gone down hill some since we saw her last in March, and she is now in a secure place where they tend to Alzh. patients.








It has been mighty quiet around here with Meg and Beckham gone, for almost a month. I am looking forward to their return at the end of this week. I have missed them alot. All is well here tho, we seem to keep busy.








Hope all is well with all of you. Love ya....

Summer in Utah











Here are the black rasberrys, they are just filled to the brim . I am going to have a great crop this year. the other pictures are of the yard and the flowers that are doing so well. We have had such great weather that it is really nice to see every thing growing and not all burned out already.
