Summer Pics With Stories

These are some pics from this summer and a little story behind each.
This flower is on a Sensitive Plant. We call it Evelyns plant cause the Granddaughter loves it and always goes out to the greenhouse and touches it which causes the leaves to fold up.
This is some Driveway art done one morning with the granddaughter. It is a common occurence around here.
These come up wild everywhere here.We have to weed them out of the flower beds but some places we let them grow because they are beautiful. The Granddaughter always picks one on the the way back from letting the chickens out of the coop in the morning
Many a morning I have a fire and watch the world go by.
I chased this Butterfly all over to get this pic
I grew these Tithonia from seed and am very Glad I did.
We planted a lot od wildflowers and these were all over. Every year we do this and every year is different what comes up
These pics are some veiws from our camping trip this August up in the Upper peninsula of Michigan. What a beautiful time of year up there No bugs and still swimable weather
Some Flowers we came across camping. It is the only thing about August camping is that the flowers are starting to wind down.
