Ha!! Exactly-

Only the waters a few hours away

Thought you might like that Pic .

We have to pay to see Kangaroos round here..

Gee that`s a nice big Red Roo .
We only get the Greys here .

I bet you see these guys all the time

Yes , sure do .
We have a family of about 5 of them .
Did you ever open that link I posted ?
The one with the Jack singing .
Jack is what we call Kookaburras .

Yep-that's why I posted my silly pic!! :)

Check out this lazy fellow

That Pic is more than I can Bear . lol

Last one-gotta go

Our ground around here is red clay.

Makes the elephants look orange

And it's real hard to dig in

Patience Ginger!! I am having to use my film camera now to take pics since my dad is working again and needs the digital for documenting his work. As for badmition, I play hard on that game. Instead of lightly hitting the ball over the net, I hit it with everything I have. Drives everyone nuts when they have to play with me.

From memory ,
If you stand on your base line and hit it as hard as you can ,
It`s nearly impossible to get it over their back line ?

I don't care where the ball goes just as long as it goes over the net. And hits whoever is in the path. LOL. Usually a cousin.

ginger, you posted a very pretty pic on Carolina Gardening-what is that red lily?

Try to find another pic for you-this one is funny

You might not be able to see it, but the cougar is licking her lips!

These are the muir cats my DD wanted to take home

Yes I can see cougars tongue .
Very few humans can lick their nose .
C is probably thinking 'Gotta have some of those RITZ'
Muir cats sure are nice .

This is called a Blood lilly .

It really has many names as you can see here .

This was a Studio Pic.

Beautiful!!

I've grown all kinds of flowers, but few lilies

Have been ordering bunches, though, so that will change!

One of my favorite lillies is the Day Lilly .
It is funny how you Umericans call them Lilies ,
Where as we say Lillies .
When I Google them , it shows them up as both .

ive started some from seeds

What colour did you get phicks ?

Pink white Lav and some other diff crosses

Looking forward to seeing your Lot .

I have orange, purples, a purple one I know for sure the name-Siloam Plum Tree, and a bunch other named ones I got for free from work but I can't remember what exactly I got. I will know when they come up since I wrote all the names down. Will post pictures when they bloom.

If you ever get your Camera back .

The camera is my dad's. I was using it since he wasn't working and didn't need it. Now he will be working til April at least but I have my film camera. I have taken a few pictures with it but there's not a whole lot to look at right now unless you like dormant trees, brown grass, and a partially frozen lake.

brown as in dormant. Won't start turning green again til next month.

Does the door-mat have "WELCOME" on it ?

Nope. Just lots of mud. LOL

Sorry to pop in here -those lillies are really nice..

I've not seen any like that around here-

Do you know the botanical name?
I want to grow some......:)

Tropicanna , Pop away all you like .
One big family here . And you are one of US .
I`ll Google it and try to find its Bot. name . Kell

OK Tropicanna

Zepheranthus grandiflora
(Storm lily, rain lily)
Clump forming bulb with large funnel-shaped flowers. Plant in early spring and leave undisturbed for as long as possible. Good container plant. As a child we were told that the flowers coming out were a sign that rains were coming. I must admit that when rain is forecast I still check for blooms. Likes to be root bound. Propagation by division of bulbs. Evergreen, hardy, semi shade
Pink flowers in late summer
Size: 20cm

Awesome!!
I have a pack of rain liles downstairs-the same ones!LOL

No one grows them around here, cause you can't find them unless you order them, I guess

I traded with someone in Texas to get them. If there's any possiblity they would be evergreen here now I'm sure they are worth a try!

I have one kind of day lily from my Mom-it's a pale yellow
and asiatic-Stagazer, and some other orangey one-

I have plantomania,
Can't wait till spring
