A proud member of "the greatest generation"
We visited Cowpens for the Mighty Moo Festival last weekend, and Dad posed in front of the Veterans Memorial. He was in the US Navy from 1944-1946.

how does your garden grow?
Snapdragons were planted in the fall and lived thro the winter. Now they are almost 3 feet tall. 
We bought mums in hanging baskets last fall and then planted them in the ground when they quit blooming. The mums are now about 2 feet tall and starting to bloom, so we will should be enjoying their blooms thro the fall season. We planted a row of "rose" begonias as a border with the mums.
This vine grows on our mailbox each year. It was here when we bought the house, but we enjoy the purple blooms each spring.
There are three flower beds in front of the trees, the one in the middle is smaller, just in front of the "Baggett Memorial" concrete bench.
