During the middle of summer,all our thousands of cosmos were in bloom and looked so very pretty have now taken on a totally different look as I've begun working on pulling them out.  I can only say that I hope next spring, when they are all popping up, that I pull most of them.  However, one blessing in all this work is that I once again found our cream colored/albino caterpillar that I saw a bit ago.  Don't know whether you can see it clearly but it is just like the fuzzy black ones but light.  So amidst my being bent over, amazed at all the growth, I was blessed by this simple creature.  Of course, someone will probably comment that this caterpillar turns into some horrid moth.  Oh well, it did give me a break, I will say that I filled our garbage can and have quit for the day. 
Have a wonderful afternoon dear friends.
Hugs, Noreen

  1. I have never seen a white one before! Greg and I headed up to the lake on a whim this morning. We are bobbing on the boat as I type this now. Delightful I tell you! I am in a sweatshirt cozier up on tieback bench seat doing crochet and reading blogs.

  2. A white caterpillar-wow! that's unique.
    Will you be planting any Fall flowers? I know it is so short-lived there. You can always decorate inside; just as fun! No watering needed :)
    The leaves are changing some here. I suppose the Aspens are changing. I sure miss them in front of Pikes.
    Enjoy them for me, my sweet friend!
    Love you!
