The Bee's Knees

Yes, the bees were a buzzin' and the roosters were crowin' and the sheep were
baahin' and the day was so pretty and warm.
Our family spent the afternoon at Aullwood Nature Center and Farm Sunday. Visiting from time to time has been a tradition for many Daytonians for years and years.What a sweet treat to feed the sheep and wander around
just enjoying the day, nature, the animals and one another.
I hope your weekend was a sweet one and that your
week is beginning well.
This time of year there is always something fun to do or a
gardening chore that needs doin'.
I will be by to visit each of you soon...until then,
know I send my love and many hugs!

    Ah! I planted a bee balm that is said to bloom a bluish color. It hasn't yet, so I don't know what color it will be. Had not ever seen the blue color before. I hope it's getting enough sun where I planted it! =)

    I didn't know that bees had knees! Do they get arthritis in them, do you think? Enjoyed your photos!
