Welcome to our nano piece of paradise!
This is essentially a creative photo blog plus few words. It is about Sandra and Denny's gardens and surrounds. My granddaughter Adelyn calls me "Poppop", hence the blog name. We try to add new images once a week. Older posts are archived at page bottom. Click an image to enlarge. We're having fun. Please! Enjoy!

30 days Hath September

Here we go. Into October. Frost is in the wings. Colorbursts. Leaves in the wind. Garden turns into toast. Images of fall.


Little sons of giant pumpkin.

Gargantuan Humungous Unbelievable Giant Pumpkin !!!!!

Wow! What a year! The giant pumpkin was so HUGE this year that we could not even weigh it! Our little chicken was so excited that she laid two eggs in the shadow of the beast! Incredible! Unbelievable! Ludicrous! Believe it or not!|;^)>

TRANSFORM

We are in transition. Summer has gone. The form of fall is slowly sneaking in. We hardly notice the morph. Perfect time to focus on form, pattern, and color. We will soon see all colors fall....
early post this week... off to a mountain lake!

More Red HOT

There is never a shortage of "more of the same" in life. Yet there are those things that call you back looking for exactly that. I cannot stop photographing certain flowers that we grow every year, even though I've already taken a hundred shots. Tomatoes and peppers grow every year... still love them. Then we get to hot sauce! This year we made a batch with orange pineapple juice, red jalapeƱo, red dancing spirits, fresh tomato, garlic, and lemon. Cannot stop using hot pepper sauce, even though it might be the same. This sauce is different. Enjoy the reds!
