Hosta Leaves #5

Post by renaldo75 »

I'm late getting this posted today. I got knocked off Hallson's after I posted to Hank's POTD so I decided to give it a rest & come back later.

More great pics, Ren! Love that Flame Stitch! I'll have to add it to my wish list. And Geisha has always been one of my faves. :wink:
We had rain yesterday too and it's still raining today. As a matter of fact.......we had some very loud thunder while I was at work and at one point lightning must have struck nearby because we lost power for a few seconds. Phones and everything went off! Thought for sure we were in for some nasty storms, but it calmed down after that.

Thanks, Joan. :P Expect more rain than what you got in another day or so. We had more in the nite apparently - the puddle is bigger this morning. I was out to the world when it was going on though.
