I found a forgotton cache of old pictures, and so I figured I'd post them here. So. Here ya go:
Fully restored Ford Falcon at the beach. (You never know what will wash up.)
Improved Josephs Coat in her heyday
Celebrating another perfect paneer
A view along the Crap Fence
Many happy honeybees playing in an Itoh Red blossom!
The first and only truly red clematis I've ever seen - and I owned it! (And yes, it's coming back like there never was a flood!)

Miskatonic University parking pass
A closeup view of the Shrine of Geoffrey
Depressed Black Kitty visiting the Shrine of Geoffrey for comfort and guidance.
That Clematis is a stunner! Someone sure stripped-out the blue!
ReplyDeleteAll lovely pics of a lovely garden.
Right?!! It was for sale at Lowes (a big box store) as "Clematis - red" and that was it. No more information. Staff not helpful. Tried to hunt it down online and got nowhere,. I seriously hope it finds a good home somehow, somewhere
DeleteI agree!!!!! I have never seen a red Clematis!!!! And it that you in the first picture toots?!? I have the strong urge to go drinking with you and knock back a few. What a hoot you look if it is indeed you!!!!
ReplyDeleteMmmm....might be. Some super swanky bi-gal holding an animal beer, anyway...
DeleteThe garden pictures are beautiful, Dinah beat m to raving about the red Clematis. And those shrubs do a great job hiding the crap fence.
ReplyDeleteHa ha! Dude, if you want to take a trip up to Washington and are up for a midnight raid, you can have it!d Bring a shovel and a bottle of something thirst-quenching.
DeleteAlways wonderful to find a cache of old photos! Lovely garden!
ReplyDeleteWho is in the top photo?
Sx
Some old broad...
Delete"Crap Fence"? Brilliant plants! I echo all the comments about the red clematis - now I want one! Jx
ReplyDeletePS I do hope that's a good beer, not a can of Pepsi or something woosey in the top photo! 😍
Oh honey no. That girl is holding a high-test microbrew. In fact that gal is holding a high-test microbrew right now.
ReplyDeleteI raise a toast to "that gal"! Jx
DeleteFYI- that gal is crossed up top to bottom. Note how the coke bottle figures defy all attempts at dude-ification.
ReplyDeleteIt's probably no surprise, my favorite pic is the red bloom with all the little honeybees. So cute! I have a hard time getting a picture of bees to turn out good.
ReplyDeleteI was so lucky on this...it was still early morning and the bees were still waking up. One of them is flying right at the camera- the rest of them were still busy with breakfast!
DeleteAh, the infamous Crap Fence. When you visited the old Rancho recently, was the crap still clinging valiantly to the fence?
ReplyDeleteP.S. Like almost everyone else here, I also need a red clematis. NEED!
Most of the crap was still there, along with new crap! Namely, flood detritus. And poor Geoffrey is still in the Shrine of Geoffrey too - but all you can see is his golden arm sticking up, holding the wreath.
DeleteDo not mess with Ford Falcon Woman.
ReplyDeletehahaha!
