Memorial Day

Remember them on this their special day, and all they gave to keep us safe.

Sunny Sunday

Even though it was another busy day here, I did manage to get in a walk on the trails.
I first spotted this female Wood duck on a fallen limb of this big willow tree. I'm sure she has a nest near by.

Then off to her left some movement caught my eye. A family of Mallards.

This is our pond trail. It follows what used to be an overflow from the creek and actually formed a "pond", but right now it's mostly dried up. The sides of the trail are lined with pink Phlox.

Also lots of Forget-me-nots.

Mixed in with Buttercups.

I got all my garden planted this evening, and even got some flowers and 3 cemetery pots done. Tomorrow we'll be going to a parade, and then having a cook-out with our family.

Drive safe if you venture out and enjoy this day that our Military has made possible.
