HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY, WOG!

Question & answer

Q: What's better than the first garden-grown tomato of the season?

A: The first garden-grown tomato of the season

...in a BLT

...at the lake.

Got a last-minute invitation from the folks to join them up north this weekend, so despite all the looming house/yardwork, we jumped at it. Weather was perfect. Dad rented the pontoon so we spent half a day just cruising the lakes. Found wild blueberries in the woods YUM. So, yeah. Life is good.

Where are you getting your information?

From a piece I just proofed about stuff to do in China other than the Olympics:

"When viewing the Great Wall it is hard to believe that it was constructed in only 10 years."

wtf?

Garden envy

A couple GardenRant bloggers are gearing up for the Buffalo Garden Walk, and I followed a link to images from last year's event. There are some really awesome gardens in there, but I have fallen completely in love with this one.

I mean, yes, clearly this was photographed on an overcast day with everything freshly wet, which is definitely how to show this sort of thing to best advantage, so it probably doesn't look quite this awesome every day, but still.

Anyway, just thought I'd share in hopes that you all might enjoy it as much as I did!

Valleyfair Day

It's time again: Saturday, September 20, is the company's annual Valleyfair day, and this year I'm not going anywhere near the Tilt-a-Whirl.

If anyone would like reduced admission to Valleyfair for that day, come with me! Tickets are $16 for adults, $15 for kids, children 2 and younger are free. The water park will not be open.
