Worked in the Nursery today

Dont small kids say the cutest things I was drinking a cup of coffee I heard one little boy say to another "did you know that only grownups can drink coffee?"
The other little boy looked at him and answered "Coffee is only for old people"



When I came home Aled was cleaning the sitting room.
Happy 4th of July to my Amercan friends and family

The Summer holiday so far

Aled had his end of year concert 

We went to the karting at the mall in Haifa
They had a lot of fun

Cedar Bay Cherry
Pitanga.

It is realy hot here at the moment my vegetable garden is a real mess I have tried to grow vegetables in the summer  but the weather is too harsh I have not given up the idea of growing my own veg but I am looking for new ways of growing the first thing I thought of is to grow fruit trees and vines and hopefully it will give the vegetables some shade from the sun in the future.
I would also like to wish
A Happy Canada Day to all you My Canadian friends and relatives.
