Our hearts have been heavy this week with the crossing of Mr. Silky over the Rainbow Bridge. He was definitely a legend in his time. We are missing him terribly.
While not a quality picture, you can see how much I resemble my dad when he was THE studmaster at Shady Nook. 🙂 Meanwhile, lots of garden stuff going on too.
Finally found the perfect spot for the garden stone Larry Lauber made us. Isn’t it fantastic? Lantanas are thriving in this hot weather; it is supposed to hit the 100s Fahrenheit this coming week.
For us, it is a holiday weekend: 4th of July, marking the birth of American Independence. Although we are no longer part of the British Empire, Mom loves everything about it. She is a true Anglophile…just take a look at her Pinterest boards. It is a lovely holiday though if you don’t count the firecrackers. BOL…~ Indy and Lucy #feelingthefourth
My heart is still so sad about Sweet Silky, too! Such a Beautiful Boy and Papa to so many wonderful Babies. Still thinking of you all! 💔 Have a safe and Happy Fourth! ❤️

Mama gasped out loud when she read about sweet Silky, and we both had moist eyes. Wishing all a safe and meaningful 4 th. SB

100 CENTIGRADE? SQUAAAAAAWK! About 10 days ago it got to 50 Centigrade (or Celsius, if you prefer) here in Arizona. And to think I thought that was hot.

Yes, Sweet Indy, Very, VERY sad about your Noble Scot Dad! You DO look like him—so handsome and Royal too! You and your Daddy are in our loving thoughts!
We have lotsa Lantana in So. CA too, because the heat doesn’t seem phase it! Last heatwave we had when it got up to 109, a lot of plants and vegetables like tomatos and avocados, to name a few, fot baked, and all the ivy burned to a crisp and is all brown now in all of our area!
We love your Scottie Garden Stone! It is very apropos for your Garden!
Stay cool and have a great Independence Day weekend!
Kisses and Hugs to you, Indy and Lucy.

So sorry to hear about Mr. Silky. We too have two Scotties, Abby and Scotty, and we rue the day they are gone. They are both rescues and have settled in nicely. Keep us laughing every day. God bless you all on your loss.
