Same with their Iris.

A headstone for Sharon's twin who died at birth. It's in one of Luman & Sharon's flower beds at their home.

Standing near their vegetable garden, looking back up towards their house.

Closer shot of it.

Closer view still, to show their 3 bird feeders.

Back patio area.

A casualty we found. This is what you get when you keep your windows so clean - the birds fly right into them. (Sharon had just cleaned their windows the week before.)

A (tiny) birdnest in one of their shrubs.

Luman, his son, Steve, and Steve's family the day after my arrival.

Steve's son, Dennis, who is a junior high athletic coach, standing by his awesome restored Corvair.

Luman and their good family friend, another Lisa.

Looking out to see Steve's backyard/deck at their home. The son must take after his father in landscaping.
