Random greenhouse pictures

Probably in the month of May

Strawberry picking

Late June

Ladybugs to the rescue,( I wish)

We have a terrible problem with aphids in the greenhouse.  First I got 1500 ladybugs.  Maybe I got them too late, but later I ordered 4500 more.  They were sure fat.  I read they can eat 50 aphids per day.

July in the greenhouse.

A beautiful summer day in the yard.

Helping pick tomatoes.

Goodbyes are hard.......

A beautiful sunset at my parents house.  We had a wonderful visit and  spent the night.  An hour after we got home the next day, mom called and said dad was gone.  July 22, 2013

Now his chair is empty.   Dad spent many hours here the past 4 years  His lungs had too much dust and chemicals in his farming years.  It was wonderful that he was able to stay at home till the end.  Mom cared for him 24/7, with love.
