I think I figured it out at last, but it's hard to say. Congrats to your adorable grandgirl on her graduation!<br />You are living quite close, but it's just for the summer months, right? You can "enjoy" the company and feeling of community for part of the year, and enjoy the quiet solitude in the winter. My parents home in the NC mtns. was much like that too. There were benefits both times of year. I do hope you don't get an RV right by your flower bed, though! That's a bit close!M.K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09205619221345704689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5786951846629057059.post-58506858642216911822017-05-27T16:00:14.849-07:002017-05-27T16:00:14.849-07:00Great start on your painting, Lisa.

I hope you still are able to have a wee bit of privacy.<br /><br />Gumbo Lilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02747138637571716591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5786951846629057059.post-69448689681644077192017-05-26T16:21:04.960-07:002017-05-26T16:21:04.960-07:00well, it could be nice to have seasons there, neig...well, it could be nice to have seasons there, neighbours nearby season and quiet season! both may be good and maybe you will meet some nice people!

Some of the different color blooms are white,pink or red. Google for more colors and bloom time. Hope this helps. Beautiful grandkids.

I smiled when I read that if you needed privacy you could always go to Micah's place. As if the grands would let you have peace and privacy!!<br />You wondered if the book Exiles from the War was about British children coming to Canada during WWII and I believe it is. It's written in diary form by a fictional young girl from Ontario. Unfortunately I doubt you'll find this book in an American library. But then again, who knows.<br />A book along the same lines but non-fiction is one I own and it's by Geoffrey Bilson who has gathered parts of actual letters and memories of the evacuated children. <br />Have a lovely weekend!!Granny Marigoldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15858237999602347848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5786951846629057059.post-6665050270960998112017-05-25T15:46:15.214-07:002017-05-25T15:46:15.214-07:00Dear plant-hunter.

The second one I do not know, but you will find out, I think!<br /><br />What a funny and nice idea to make some graduation for having finished kindergarden. Audrey looks so happy and beautiful, and very close to her mother. I can imagine her as making her doctor's graduation!<br /><br />I like your new home between the trees and like a pilgrimage. Some changes I think, are like changing weather :) I hope always for good neighbours, why shouldn't they not be nice, maybe some new friends?<br /><br />The beginning of Your new painting is splendid! dorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17317158312699345659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5786951846629057059.post-60671813150975087032017-05-25T15:45:01.449-07:002017-05-25T15:45:01.449-07:00Oh I think it's wonderful to have a dream at a...Oh I think it's wonderful to have a dream at all! Most days here it's just as you say, chasing them over all creation- though mine are bigger than A and smaller than yours! I did laugh when you talked at first about birds dropping seed- last day of exams tomorrow and I was testing Jo on animal dispersal of seeds! I can't wait for tomorrow- if they don't burn their revision notes, I might- well, I would if i didn't know it's all coming up again next year!<br /><br />I do hope those RVs will be kind neighbours- quiet and invisible, except for the hunking visibility!magsmcchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17278148796772565928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5786951846629057059.post-52858542663590874122017-05-25T14:51:10.956-07:002017-05-25T14:51:10.956-07:00Well, I love the beginnings of your painting.
