I'm going to retire and live off of my savings. Not sure what I'll do that second week.

That's so pretty. I need to get outside and get a shot of my tiny little clump.
I'll let y'all know if I sneeze. Ha!!

Good idea! I'll go down the driveway and take pics of ours and post one, too.

Now that it's not just barely daylight and 40-something farenheit, I'll go get a better pic. Big Grin

Mine before I removed it. I liked it, but it grows all over, just across the road, and took up a lot of room that I can use. I wasn't even going to take the shovel. HA! I barely got it out with it!! It sure left a nice empty spot :o)

I tried to post my pics earlier today, but I guess they were too big. It was loading forever, and I finally gave up.
