Fire!


FIRE

It is amazing the designs that are within flowers and all of nature, for that matter. All you have to do is look closely. Take the time to ZOOM IN, you just might find some nice surprises. "Fire!" is a detail of some brilliantly colored late summer daisies that I digitally painted to emphasize the great designs and rich color.

Home Grown Tomatos


Yum, there is nothing like a sweet flavorful home grown tomato. Finally I have one that is almost ready to pick. I have no idea why they are taking so long. Not enough sun, maybe? There is a tree that is blocking my patio garden and they are too hard to move every day. I guess I'm going to have to figure something out for future tomatos. These are of the Beefsteak Variety, someone told me that theirs were also late in ripening. It could be the weird weather. Anyway, I can't wait to taste it. Another day or too, I want them to ripen on the vine as much as possible. Maybe I'll consult the Organic Gardening Guru for some tips. He probably knows how to grow Killer Tomatos!!!
