Just July

Welcome to Carberry!

All of these photos were taken around the town Carberry.

Starting with the Daylily Garden.

And the prettiest flower of all!

Some random photos taken around the town.

Celebrating Canada 150

Love this bike!

This is a nice addition to the park at the end of Main street,

along the tracks...similar to the old railway station.

Great idea for a bench!

This one is in Mom's neighbour's yard.

I hope you enjoyed our July tour!

June Blooms and Random Views

Time for my monthly photo tour! All of these pictures were taken around our yard....a mix of wild flowers and perennials, and some miscellaneous shots. Hope you enjoy this little glimpse of June beauty!

Starting with these beautiful purple and white irises. I took a picture of them early in the month, thinking I almost missed them, but they have continued to bloom all month long!

And then onto some of the wild flowers that grow all over our acreage.

Can't leave out a good sunset!

This is a painted daisy...one of our perennials that grows among the false spirea hedge.

Brian brought these home and just put them in the ground until we could find a home for them...they seem to like it here in the sand!

I had to include this picture...I love these trees! We don't have many on our property, and of the 50 we planted, only a few survived...but these ones are thriving in the pure sand! I like to pretend my house is surrounded by them! One day it will be...these trees are producing a small forest with all the shoots they are sending out.

My beautiful fence and arbour covered in virginia creeper. It gets better every year!

Another few of my forest in the making!

And last, a pretty little shrub that Brian planted...but I can't remember what it is...maybe someone can tell me.

That's it for June. I can't believe we're just a few days away from July...see you next time!

May Meanderings

May will soon be over, so I thought I better get my monthly photo tour posted. Brian took these while I was visiting Mom in Carberry, on the May long weekend.

I guess everyone is out of town enjoying the long weekend!

Some beautiful trees in bloom!

The rest of these photos were taken in the area northeast of Carberry.

Not too many of these around anymore!

He knows I love pictures of old buildings!

I like the way the rows show up in this one.

Found this red winged blackbird hiding in the grass.

Such a great old truck!

That's it for Brian's May meanderings.....we'll have another photo tour in June!
