LOL! We have buried several animals here on the farm, most recently our beloved horse, Grady. I am glad to own land where we can do that. My pond is overflowing, but it has cleared up a bit. I'm not liking the pollen at all- keeps my sinuses messed up.

I grew up in Arkansas and the first tree I ever climbed (and fell out of) was a mimosa. We'd pretend the blossoms were face powder puffs. Sadly, those trees don't grow here in Michigan.Denny144https://www.blogger.com/profile/17531412274113797877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-971541568171657986.post-51669191609599310522015-05-16T18:21:08.404-07:002015-05-16T18:21:08.404-07:00You had a fun day and got lots done.You had a fun day and got lots done.Redhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17996243850279671523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-971541568171657986.post-73022988093296693392015-05-16T17:59:10.946-07:002015-05-16T17:59:10.946-07:00Thank Poppy for the photos.

We don't have an official pet cemetery, but there are four dogs buried in different spots, I know where they all are. A few cats as well, but not sure where those are. Would hate to dig one up while digging a hole for another pet. Have done that once or twice when burying chickens:( Thankfully it was just bones. Oh, and there are a few sheep out there too.

We used to make chains from them too. And my father made dandelion wine, so he'd send us kids out to pick bucketsful of dandelions.jo(e)https://www.blogger.com/profile/01488562158252331555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-971541568171657986.post-78760189492198532852015-05-16T07:40:20.554-07:002015-05-16T07:40:20.554-07:00Great photos, love your pond.
