		<description><![CDATA[At my request, Jim slogged around the garden, taking more photos, between thunderstorms yesterday. The first flower is one of our favorites, and it was one of those unidentified perennials in our midst, until recently. Jim is waiting until such a time as the interesting white spider that frequents this plant appears.

The second flower, seen [...]]]></description>

The other day, Jim walked around in our yard, taking a few photos. I have just edited five of those flower pictures to share with you. I have a simulated (paper) cross stitch Sampler in my collection that [...]]]></description>

On our &#8220;summer porch,&#8221; a bouquet of Lilacs graces
a simulated antique washstand that Jim built.
In the background, a Redwork splasher with an
antique design is hung.
The intoxicating smell of Lilacs lingers in memory. Their blooms are always too short-lived and I feel a sense of sadness, a sense of passage into a new season when all [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Every spring, we look forward to seeing the first flowers to appear in our yard: the perennial &#8220;Glory of the Snow.&#8221; This particular set of flowers, shown here, somehow migrated to the edge of the foundation, just below the lowest (old) clapboard on the house. Our perennial flowers are apt to come up any old [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Your email:&#160;
In having revisited the article on &#8220;Butterflies and More Butterflies&#8221; today, I could not help but recall a day one summer. At the time, there was much discussion, locally, about development of an area in town, on the Concord, NH &#8220;heights,&#8221; that contained a lot of pines. The habitat was significant because it was [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One of the delights in having a garden is growing Jerusalem Artichokes.

Before you say that you don&#8217;t like artichokes, I have to mention that the roots of the plants above are not anything like the traditional artichoke that one would buy in a restaurant. They are not slimy, nor hard to eat.
The tall spiky plants, [...]]]></description>
