Installing New Front Doors and Replacing Garage Trim – Day 1

Full Leaves of August and Something to Ponder

It was about ten days ago when I checked out the soybeans across the road from our house. At that time there were flowers. Today they are showing the beginnings of a bean with their cute fuzzy long formations.
