Thought I would shoot some more photos today of the plants and wildlife that I see on a daily basis while sitting in the shade of my deck.

Here is one of the plants that the local sheriff's deputy thought was pot growing next to my home.

In about two more weeks, here's the flowers that will emerge from my giant, hardy, northern hibiscus plants. If anyone wants some seeds from the flowers, I will be more than happy to send them to you.



All the best,

Gary

Here's some of the critters that visited me today.

Gary I am so happy for you. You found beauty in music, and then freedom in the open seas; and now in the beauty of nature.

It takes someone very special to do that Gary. You find beauty where many do not.

Keep it going my friend, John C.

thanks John, for the compliments. The past week has been very difficult with my breathing problems, and the very hot, humid weather has exacerbated the problem to a large degree. There is a lot of beautiful things in this country for everyone to see, experience and enjoy. The photos allow me to share some of what I have seen and experienced with everyone else.

Thanks again,

Gary

Gary great pictures of your Garden of Eden .....

A garden requires patient labor, love and attention.
Plants do not grow merely to satisfy ambitions or to fulfill good intentions.
They thrive because someone expended effort on them.

Looks GREAT, GARY!

Thanks Russ, and I'm glad the letter arrive OK.

All the best,

Gary
