Title: Happy Spring 2020

It's finally Spring here in Fla. and this is what old retired Gamers sit and look at with a cool drink in the evening. The Purple Martin's have made a nest in my Martin House for the first time in 3 years and here's the result. Enjoy Grogs.

That's pretty cool.  Looks noisy, though. 

The fam and I went out to the nursery again and picked up a butterfly bush for the backyard.  We get hummingbirds pretty regularly (and they're noisy little birds as well) so maybe we'll get some nice quiet butterflies soon.  We saw a monarch and some yellow one earlier today in the yard.

A local lady I know put me on to what she calls a, 'Pogoda Bush' that was drawing butterflies like they were on Crack or something when it blooms. I brought one of hers home and planted it but it's growing very slowly and no blooms yet.
