THE AZALEA TRAIL AT KATES CABIN


Hi Everybody!!
Welcome to my 'Azalea Trail' at Kates Cabin. All year long, this is the time of year I wait to see again, the beautiful bloom of the azaleas! For two weeks my place feels like a tropical paradise splashed in color. Now, there are azalea trails in Houston at big mansions with large estates. Mine is not that kind of trail.  Out in the countryside at my little cabins, are these huge, beautiful shrubs that I planted years ago as babies. So, come in and check out these wonderful flowers! Enjoy!

DO YOU LIKE HOMEMADE PEACH-VANILLA ICE CREAM ON HOT PEACH PECAN COBBLER?


Hi Everybody!!
If your answer is "YES", that is the only reason you need to grow a Peach Tree! I encourage you all to plant fruit trees as they are so beautiful blooming out of the cold winter skies and you get peaches. There are many varieties for most locations, just check Google Search for info and options. The photo lineup today begins with my favorite peach tree, the Red Baron. The increased rainfall this spring brings an abundance of blooms. My peach cobbler was the best dessert at the restaurant years ago. Plan to come over in June when the peaches are ripe! Enjoy!
