I was fortunate to get to spend time with my “in-laws” Buddy & Melva this past weekend in the Dallas area. Although in reality I have promoted them to the position of my parents, as I feel that kind of love for and from them. No mother in law jokes accepted, thank you very much. I prowled around their yard and had the most fun getting to reap the beauty of all of Buddy’s work. Amongst the heat and humidity, stuff grows that would never flourish in the desert of the southwest. I look forward to our next visit.

It is time to bloom, it is feeling very tight in the bud!  ††† en theos ††† jim work
