Some sadness and some pics

| 3 Comments

Very saddened to hear of the death of Harvey Korman. He's being remembered as a comedian and the ultimate straight man although I don't think he ever kept a straight face with Tim Conway. I'd wager a few bucks that no one could have. Korman's attempts to do so became part of their shtick and it will be sorely missed. Below, I offer a bit of classic comedy this morning.

R.I.P., Harvey Korman.

And some other stuff from the backyard.

We saw these "firecracker" bushes at the Jean Lafitte National Park a few years ago and haven't seen them since ... until I saw one yesterday at the garden center. I like the bright green and bright red/orange together. Hopefully, so will the CrabAppleLane hummingbirds.

This is what we do with mirlitons.

Why do you hang mirlitrons? At least I think they are being hung!

They grow on a climbing vine, Beth. I built something that resembles an old clothes line for them to grow on so they'll be at an easy height to pick. Some people use their fence.

I always loved the Carol Burnett show. It was a very good cast - all of them.

RIP, Harvey Korman. Thanks for the all the laughs.
