I've always loved wildflowers. Dolly Parton's song called "Wildflowers", has a line that goes like this - ..WILD FLOWERS DON'T CARE WHERE THEY GROW... (I have a link to the song on this blog - so have a listen). I've always thought of myself as a wild flower; I'll put my roots anywhere. This blog is mostly about my "wild" garden, our pond, the birds and insects that visit, it`s about our animals, and our home projects.

Birthday Bonfire
Well, as luck wold have it, we had sunshine for my birthday. What better way to spend a chilly, sunny November day than to have a bonfire! I was blessed at birth with a birthday that falls during one of the dreary wet months of fall. Traditionally it rains, so this year was indeed a bonus so had to take advantage of the clear skies. Invited a few friends and neighbours over and we lit the fire at 3pm. We had around 19 or so folks come by, and I must say once it got dark it was quite cool outside. As the fire slowly died, and the embers cooled, those who were still around at 7pm moved inside and then ultimately we played pool till late in the evening. Today starts my personal new year, and it is back to another 30-day fitness challenge at the gym starbeginning Monday Nov 15th. I am looking forward to new beginnings!
