June 07 A Project...From Start to Finish As most of my loyal followers are aware...Mr. "PJ" and myself were self-employed for many years in designing and and installing landscaping. We had to semi-retire ( if you choose to use this phrase ) simply because of all the physical labor that had taken it's toll on our bodies. We still do a few projects from time to time for customers of 20 plus years. A recent one was designed and all phases of the challenge were completed to satisfaction. It was not an easy task on some of it as it involved 3 pond liners for the terraced water garden plus an arched bridge to cross over in a small space. We had never attempted to design a bridge..so this was the first. We only used a shovel, leveler, wheelbarrow, and our hands.In the end..it turned out lovely thanks to Mr. "PJ" and his brilliant wood carving talents. Underwater lights were also added and the view from his deck looking down is spectacular!
 The owner added KOI and at first they "jumped" out during their feeding frenzies, so we decided to stretch a thin net over it and cover the edges with the landscape rock from one's view. It solved the problem. Believe it or not this gentleman which we've known for years whistles as he descends his deck stairs and the KOI know it's feeding time. LOL..True story, folks.
 At any rate..thought I'd share these images with you all and you may be able to see how much physical labor was involved.. It took us 7 weeks to complete due to working over there after our regular jobs and on/off some weekends. A barren piece of ground turned into beauty.
 Oh yes, the gentleman's name is Cory..hence the pun on the album name.
Until next time..Keep Smiling.

May 31 Thank You All....I wish to thank you all for the lovely birthday wishes and the visits plus a few emails from some. I have been MIA since the previous entry was posted, as some of you are aware if you stopped by here again looking for a new posting. Here is the long story ...condensed...of what has happened since the 19th. My birthday was wonderful; however 2 days afterwards, I began to have severe pain . Let's just remember that it was Memorial day weekend and I wasn't able to get any help until Tuesday the 26th. A couple of my teeth broke and unfortunately infection set in. So. as soon as my dentist could see me for an emergency visit on that Tuesday..my jaw was as big as a golfball. Yes, folks, I am not exaggerating. To make a long story short...took antibiotics and 800 mg. Ibuprofen. I have a very low tolerance to any medications..hence only the Ibuprofen. He extracted 3 of the teeth and wanted to take the 4th one, for which I said no to. Came home and went to work the next day for a double shift. ( Wrong decision on my part.) Relapsed...due to allergic reaction to a specific antibiotic. He called in a new RX plus pain meds and I started them immediately. Only took 1 of the pain meds as they completely knocked me out. Here it is Sunday evening, the 31st of May, and I am finally beginning to heal. It will be a slow process (duh) because of the amount of infection that returned. So, in a nut shell and in this case a "NUT CASE" (me) I am happy to report that today has been the best day since my birthday!!
O.K. enough about me and my absence. I do want to thank all who was aware that I had not been here to post a new entry or post a new album..LOL..Yep, me and photos. Go figure. So, as an end to this pitiful story I say this..THANK GOODNESS FOR YOGURT and ICE CREAM! I will be so thrilled when I get to eat solid food again. LOL. Yes I am very hungry but grateful I am finally recovering from excruciating pain.
I am posting a new album with some photos I have taken prior to and during my absence. Some are better than others, as usual, but they bring me pleasure. Hope you enjoy. HAPPY JUNE.
Until next time...Keep Smiling.

April 25 LUNCH HOUR with NATURE I thought it was past time to post a new entry. I have been working and have had little if no time to do so. This past Tuesday was a double shift at work and it was a most gorgeous day out. I decided not only to get away for lunch, but to get outside and forget about the second shift I would be working. I headed to the nearby Park and got lost in the sights and sounds of Mother Nature for an hour. Needless to say....I returned to work rejuvenated and smiling. I hope you all enjoy my walk as much as I did.
 Until next time....Keep Smiling.
