Let's go south to Georgia this week to take a look at Charleen's gardens. We already know she loves her animals; now we can see how she loves her plants. Be sure to click on her pictures to enlarge them.

I really loved seeing your gardens and the variety of beautiful plants you grow. You've got a wonderful variety! And of course, who can resist the photo of "your gang"?

I enjoyed the tour of your gardens, Charleen. You have so many lovely blooming plants. Oh, to have that much land to play with! Loved the pic of the animals too. You are a very talented lady!

Nice gardens Charleen! I think your 9+ acres will fill up quickly! Love the huge variety of plants you have. Ever since I saw you building your bog garden I've been tempted to try one too. It's on my 6 mile long "to do " list.

Wonderful to see your gardens. I love the flowers, chickens, mules, everything all together. I think all that makes for a happy life.

Looks like you still have plenty of room to grow, too. You've done a great job Charleen, you should be very proud.

Don't let her kid you, it's all Charleen's. I just had fun arranging it all on your screen.

Heh. Ya just never know . . . have you never wondered who lives in that huge hole in your big old tree? A little internet service, my laptop, I could just set up housekeeping in it and you'd never even notice.

String some curtains --- gingham of course --- over the opening & you would be snug as a bug in a rug.
