When Debbie Jarve posted this colorful flower assortment, she also commented that she photographed them on a much needed ride to remind her how blessed we are and that there is so much to be thankful for. Life is Good! After looking at these beautiful blooms, I would have to agree. It’s a good thing to take some time to rest in the beauty of nature and to give thanks for all of it that surrounds us each and every day, from the lupines, the lilacs the dainty, little forget-me-nots and yes, even the dandelion seed-heads. They all add so much color and uniqueness to our days, if only we take time to notice and appreciate them.

Kristina Schnettler, Construction Supervisor for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers project to add a new lock at the Soo Locks in Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan, gives us an update on the project that has been in the works since the 1980’s and is expected to be completed in 2030.

Good Morning!! The 4th pic almost made me
sneeze:=))

Interesting video on the Locks, amazing
engineering actually! Congress names the new
lock... :=((

BEAUTIFUL red lilacs. I like the white ones too.
Great vid.

Love the flowers! As i always say, i don't know how the lupine survive - the deer always ate the lupine we planted. You can almost smell the lilacs!

The update on the Lock reminds us of how slow the wheels of government turn! But think how good it will be when it's done. Heaven forbid anything happens to the Poe before the new lock is ready.

Beautiful flowers.

Would love to take another trip to the Soo.

Beautiful Lilacs. I've never seen red ones.

But I adore Lupines. I was happy I could find this shot from along Mandan Rd. The Sunlight made it seem light a painting. The reduced quality needed to post doesn't do it justice.

Oh wow, D.A. These are gorgeous! I love
lupines so much. I wanted to transplant some
wild ones in my yard but if the deer like
them, forget it. They've already eaten a
couple of our plants and some leaves off of
our new apple tree. And where I'd plant them
is right where the deer enter the yard. I
love the deer but I don't like them eating
my yard. Ron planted clover instead of
grass in the back of our yard hoping the
bunnies and deer would eat that instead. But
then we had that few day drought and we
didn't water. So, that's not gonna grow.
Water costs a fortune here and we're already
wondering what our bill will be just for
keeping the flowers alive. So anyway, I love
the flowers.

We had red lilacs in our yard in Minnesota,
as well as the lilac color, white, deep
purple and purple and white variegated. And
they all smelled beautiful. I really didn't
want to leave them. Oh well, we do what we
can here.

CONGRATS TO THE COLORADO AVALANCHE, 2022 NHL STANLEY
CUP WINNER'S!!


By Deb S. (Usedtobeayooper) on Monday, June 27, 2022 - 12:46 pm:

Haven't liked them since the whole
Wings/Avalanche rivalry. Claude Lemieux (sp)
and Patrick Roy are cheaters in my opinion.
But being a Wings fan, that is how I'd feel,
lol.

There was a hockey game?


By Deb S. (Usedtobeayooper) on Tuesday, June 28, 2022 - 08:40 am:

My husband's a hockey fanatic so I knew it
was on. I cheered for Tampa Bay. Yzerman
basically built that team when he was the
GM. I'd say he knew what he was doing
(insert smiley face).
