Patrick

 

Patrick is my cat. He is eleven years old, and still likes being on his favorite table.

Turtle

 

Touche' is a turtle, but he is much more then just a turtle. Touche' has been in the Beam family for fifty years. Touche' is sweet and has so much personality. This photo shows Touche' coming out to say hello to family over on Thanksgiving Day.

Sisters

 

It was a nice day at Descanso Gardens where these sisters, who are both artists, attended an art show. At the show they met some professional artists. In this photo, they are having a long conversation about their own artwork and the photos they took that day.

My first garden

 

I looked around my yard to find a piece of ground for growing vegetables and fruit. I used boulders and rocks from the yard to outline the garden. I worked very hard and well cultivated the region in the yard. Then I planted-tomatoes, eggplant, onions, corn, and zucchini.

The garden

 

The garden is growing very nice now.I like working in it.

Zucchini

 

My first fresh zucchini from my garden for our dinner.

Ready to harvest

 

To my surprise everything I planted grew - tomatoes, eggplant, onions, corn, and zucchini.
