I've been to the Ozarks twice (both times to visit the Laura Ingalls Wilder museum) and I think that part of the country is so beautiful!Angelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17346526327368134411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3679123700391465393.post-2463669797441533282018-03-02T08:50:57.294-06:002018-03-02T08:50:57.294-06:00I envy you your leaf mulch.

Dirty eggs!" Wish the hens would wipe their feet before getting into the nest boxes. :o\<br /><br />How lovely (and encouraging) to see all the little green shoots in your various flower beds. Glad you don't rake your leaves. Such good mulch and nutrients when they decay and go back into the soil.Mama Peahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03649357184167949247noreply@blogger.com
