Chainsaw Boy + Some Tulips

This is Oliver with our lawn guy, Dan, cutting a branch from our maple tree with a bonafide chainsaw. He's wearing Dan's earmuffs, and I am the counterweight on the other end of the stick. He was in tool heaven!
Sorry to keep repeating the tulips, but I am sooo impressed with the colour of these (Dordogne) -- the blending of pink and orange like a watercolour painting; and how long they are lasting; and how tall they are; and how the squirrels don't seem to care for them; and how the rain looks on them; and how they haven't flopped over...a very good tulip! What's happening in everyone elses' garden???

MaryBeth, Nicholas looks like a real pro! Could I hire him to cut a piece of bamboo for my fishpond? The spout finally broke. I just need a short length of bamboo to fix it. I'm jealous of those orangey tulips. I'll be posting some pics of my tulips soon.
Love, mom
oops! I meant to say "Ollie". Sorry Ollie!
Love, grandma
Marybeth, maybe I will try that tulip when we move and I don't have deer eating everything I hold dear. They actually left the ones on the deck alone this year! My lilac are blooming and a few rhodos. It's really hard to get excited about the garden. I think it has finally gotten the best of me! oh well! I'm already planning a smal, simple garden in the next palce!
Happy gardening, margie
