'Life'...

Spent a little time... 'Down The Rabbit Hole', today.

Had wanted to get a BUNCH of trimming done,

 but... didn't get near as much accomplished, as I'd hoped.

Gonna have to call in Reinforcements!!!

; )

{Grandson, Justin. ; ) He'll be Thrilled!! : ) }

<3

 Been researching so called 'weeds' that are thriving here...

 for their medicinal, and 'Natures' values.

Oh My!!

No Wonder we've always had so many Butterflies...

 Birds, and Wildlife... Here!!

<3

We don't use poisons, or weed killers. 

Never have.

Get's a little 'shaggy' but... 

It Is... What It Is.

; )

'Life'

<3

Neighbor, and Friend... Lee, turned me on to 'Sweet Annie', close to 30 years ago.

<3

It's Scent... is

 Intoxicating.

<3

Intoxicating.

<3

It dries Beautifully, and holds it's Powerful...

'Intoxicating' Scent, for Years.

<3

I've given so much of it away... over the decades.

<3

It's self seeding, Ya have to be careful where you plant it, it'll kinda take over.

: )

{I... let it 'take over'... here. ; )}

I cut it in the late Fall... after we get a Frost.

Dry bunches of it, then... use the dried...

 in 

Fresh...

 Floral arrangements, instead of Baby's Breath.

{and save it, after.}

Before vacuuming, I crunch up a few sprigs of the old, old... bunches of 

Sweet Annie on the carpet, stems and all.

{Rabbit Hole... and Home}

Let it sit, for an hour... or, so... 

then, vacuum.

: )

Makes the House, Shop... and Vac, smell INSANE!!!

<3

It's kinda like Patchouli... tho.

; )

Not... the 'Scent'.

Sweet Annie, and Patchouli... smell little alike, 

yet...

 they 'Mingle'... very well.

'Earthy'.

What they have in common, for sure...

Ya Either LOVE 'em...

or,

Ya Hate 'em!!

Hahahahahaha!!!

; )

Most... who visit The Rabbit Hole, 

Love... Both Scents.

: )

{my kinda 'Tribe' <3}

The above popped up today.

<3

Need to read it every Morning.

Above... I see.... a plant called, 'Obedient Plant', has found it's way to the Planters,

 at the 

Entrance Door,

 to

 The Rabbit Hole.

hmmmmmm.

???

'It'...

 Has Most Definitely...

 Lost It's Way!!!

: )

 Didn't plant anything, this year.

EVERYTHING

 around The Rabbit Hole, is 'Volunteer'. 

'Mother Nature'...

or...

 something

 Our Peg...

planted a decade ago.

<3

: )

Love The Grasses, that have Popped Up.

<3

Stunning.

: )

<3

Beauty.

That's...

  a 

Fact.

; )

Love to Ya...

Prayers for All, who are Suffering and Struggling.
