'LAVENDER' FIELDS FOREVER!!!

Worked in the lavender garden all afternoon cutting back the lavender that should have been cut back last fall. (better late than never???) Gus and Gracee where my little helpers??? Thank you gpa for starting the cutting back yesterday. That kicked me in the butt to finish the project!!

Gpa brought in some 'fresh cut rosemary' this evening to put on the lamb chops that we bbqued--made us think of the best smells in our memory----- rosemary-mmmmmmmm----lavender, of course, been with it all day, the MOST wonderful smell in the world, fresh cut alfalfa--what is better than that??? Maybe the smell of a SAWMILL---gotta tell ya--not a smell that most of you have grown up with-but-my Dad worked in a sawmill, I worked in a sawmill, Gpa worked in a sawmill and we had these wonderful sawmill smells growing up---nothing like it---there is nothing like the smell of a sawmill. Wish I could bottle it up and share it with all!!! If you ever get near a sawmill----take a deep breath and ENJOY the fragrance!!! XOXOXOXOXOXgmasu...
