(I know it's Sunday, but he's always early.) <BR/><BR/>He lives in Amarillo, Texas and has lots of pics of the foliage around his neighborhood. Makes for a fun comparison. He also has a contest for anyone who can guess what's in the last picture. Being a city girl I think it's mussel shells from an Italian restaurant, but I'm sure that is a very poor guess.<BR/><BR/>TerrieTerrie Farley Moranhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04980849018232866773noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8329622951839766826.post-86165049979349106032008-07-06T12:53:00.000-06:002008-07-06T12:53:00.000-06:00Lovely flowers.That's still a lot of spinach (at l...Lovely flowers.<BR/><BR/>That's still a lot of spinach (at least to me!) despite the hot weather.<BR/><BR/>What are your eating plans for the spinach?
