campfire anthems____________________________burning away

…for this guy to start blogging.  i can’t wait to see what all he has to say, since he is a frequent commenter on my blog, and is part of the family (thanks to my wife).  go check him out now!

what are you still doing here?

this is what any novice gardener loves to see.  a while back my dad and i planted this hibiscus tree in my front yard.  for a long time it bloomed and then it just quit.  i figured the season was over and it would sort of just produce yellow leaves, which it did (there are still yellow leaves on it).  i came home from church yesterday and this is what i saw.

how exciting.
