FLOWERING


Judy noticed this huge shrub tree blowing in the wind recently and commented that it is so heavy with blooms that it seems to be moving in slow motion.

It's one of the Red Tip Photinia's that has been allowed to "grow up" as opposed to being trimmed back.

It's become a safe home for untold numbers of finches and we can hear them singing like crazy at certain times of the day.


We got our new home confirmed yesterday so it appears we'll be moving (once again) five weeks from tomorrow.

We've been assured that the duplex we're moving to is one of the nicer ones in Prescott Valley so we're looking forward to relocating and settling down once again.

We hope it will be our last move but that's what we said three years ago when we moved in here.

    good luck on the moving, been so long since I've done it I wouldn't know how to even start.

  4. I understand about the move, hopefully it will be the last because that is a lot more work than anyone realizes.

  8. That's a beautiful tree or bush or whatever. One of the things we've learned from living in Florida for a lot of years is that anything you plant here will eventually turn into a tree unless you keep hacking away at it!
