HILTON HEAD ISLAND MAY 09


We were in Hilton Head Island last week. Despite mostly rain, wind and cool (Gill would say cold)weather, we had a good time with my Mother, Uncle Pete and Aunt Diane. We played alot of cards and visited. This picture was taken on Hunting Island State Park, an adventure that Gill and I did. We had fun exploring the park, saw 3 deer, squirrels, birds and some beach erosion. It was windy but a beautiful day - one of only 2.

AHH THE SWEET SMELL OF GARDENIAS


As I walked up my front sidewalk this evening, the sweet smell of my gardenias hit me, it is so beautiful! We got a small tree a few years ago, it has doubled. Tonight I had 4 blooms open, 1 about to open and about 20 other buds to come!!! It does not bloom often but when it does, WOW.
