  1. An amazed Abraham Lincoln looked at the photograph and was shocked that these three things were flowers and not a cluster of lights stuck in the flowers. The portal picture is always too small for my old eyes. LOL Have a nice weekend.

  5. They're supposed to keep moles at bay, but I'm not sure of their efficacy.
    They didn't come back in our garden, at least (Not that we had any in the first place..)

  6. So that's what they're called. I've seen them in Brugg near us and marvelled at their strangeness (to me).
