Come on over to the UK , we have lush lawns, cottage garden roses fully perfumed, jasnmine and rocks when you come to Snowdonia.

Nothing better than the smell of freshly cut grass

We love rocks to up here in the midwest. We’ve had rain a-plenty too up here.

But never will we have the scent of jasmine and gardenias in our backyard! How lovely!

I had to resort to pet rocks because I kept killing my chia pets.

You give beautiful new meaning, Donna, to the phenomenon once known as “the pet rock”.

N — agreed on the sound of lawnmowers, but they are less irritating than gas-powered leaf blowers and weed-trimmers. My Dad is having to re-plant part of his garden because of the heavy rains. Some of the commercial corn and soybean fields near the Red River flooded completely.

Talina — I’ve already got a spot in mind for that rock! Plus, I’ve never got one in the mail before. I’ve worried about them in my carryon at airports, but all I got was strange looks from the TSA people.

We are so sending you a rock from The Farm now. I used to paint rocks as a kid but haven’t caught the rock bug as an adult.

I’ve never smelled so much freshly cut grass until we moved to the Midwest from AZ this last Fall! I hate the sound of lawn mowers but love the fragrance that wafts from the lawns and fields afterwards. It always makes me want to pour a nice tall glass of lemonade or iced tea and sit outside.

We’re finally drying out a bit here too after several weeks of rain. I’m trying to get the rest of my vegetable garden in before we get more.

That’s so sweet Lori! I have wished I’d labeled my rocks before “planting” them, but I can look at any of them and conjure up wonderful memories of the places they came from… and especially of the people who were at those places.

You’re so right — rocks ROCK!

I love rocks! I never ‘understood’ rocks until freinds of mine started painting them, and my grandaughter got the bug. I have rocks now from every stage of her life, and every time I look in my garden, it means more to me than her annual school picture, it means a peace of her progress, a time captured in paint, a memeory shared as I was there. Rocks “ROCK”,, lol
