Things In My Yard On A Sunday

After the rain ended on Sunday, we put on our boots and went in the yard. 
This is what I found...

A guy...


Broken glass.
Our yard tends to grow broken glass. 
As it was on farms of yesteryear, glass was just thrown outside. 
There were piles all around. 
Bottle shards, pieces of dinner plates. 
Recycling as we know it now did not exist. 
When it rains (and especially in the spring after the long, cold winter) glass can be found sprouting from the earth. 
 

Chives. 
I love my chives. 
A no nonsense, no maintenance onion that returns year after year. 
Why, hello there chives!
 

Lassie...
 

A baby bottle bottom.
Say that three times fast...


A purple pony...
 

A yellow something. 
We don't know what this is or where it came from!
The leaves emerging all around this yellow wonder are those of our bright orange lilies that bloom in the heat of July. 
Who is this beautiful yellow intruder?


A little Old Glory...
 

What remains of the neighbor's mean cat who died last year...
 

This beautiful red tree fungus. 
The colors in nature can be quite amazing, don't ya think?!
