The Yard Looks Nice

I've still got a lot of raking to do.

This is my iris bed. Irises are for wisdom. They are very hardy and don't need to be covered, but I think it looks nice, like the flowers are snuggled in bed for the winter.

Halona and Sophie on high alert in the dog pen. I wanted a pic of them in their leaf bed, but they refused to cooperate. Yesterday, I raked up all the leaves in the pen and today it appears I haven't raked in a week.

My Confederate Rose is blooming. The blooms are beautiful, but they don't last very long. I'll have to cut it back soon.

Each day this week, I go out and work in the yard. It's very pleasant. The weather is nice and I feel like I'm doing something meaningful. Tomorrow I'll be working on the front yard.
