Often, it is the smallest thing that brings the most joy!

That's one of my favorites...Don't step on it!

No matter how dry the soil may be on the high desert mesa top, these purple flowers emerge!

Flowers to climb the fences

I will plant some flowers along the fences. I am expecting morning glories and clematis vines, but I really don't know for sure, because they were given to me as a goodbye present from one of my neighbors in Parker. I always stopped to admire her flowers every night when I came home from work. She put together little bags of seeds and put them in a big bag with a goodbye card. Wasn't that sweet?
Here are the ones that have so far appeared above the soil.

From the road to the kitchen

Driving back home from Santa Fe, there they were again, those beautiful sunflowers.
Next thing you know, they mysteriously appear in the car in my McDonalds water cup! I swear I don't know how that happened!

Now they are in our kitchen, where they truly belong!

Toil and Sweat, But Enjoying Every Minute

I know that the rocks look like they have been laid by a drunk in places, but that was just the best I could do, and I swear the only medication I am on is Claritin. The weeds and grasses were waist high. Three levels are complete, with one more to go.
