Scarlet Runner Beans

My scarlet runner beans are looking pretty dismal. I have looked in many places on the web for insight on what may be going on. All of the pictures of these vines on the internet show a lot of leaves, looking green and lush. Mine is certainly not like that. There have been times I have has a lush bush of leaves, but then they seem to turn brown, dry up and fall.

Fountain Bouquet

I have taken to making my fountain into a bouquet.

Hope you enjoy!

Honey and Water

The bird bath on the railing, with some rock. How it looked, prior to its move this weekend.

Visiting Honey Bees.

In the last week or so I have has on going visits from bees, specificity honey bees. Now unlike some people, I have no fear of bees, and I also realize that they are so needed for pretty much anything that grow.

Tahoe Helitack

There is a group of people who get very little credit or acclaimed for much of the year. But in the summer, during fire season, people notice. They get news coverage, and spectacular pictures taken of them.
