backyard garden

the poppies are in bloom

Renee planted them because they are a reminder of my summer holidays with an uncle and aunt in Tolkamer-Tuindorp on the Rhine. My family members worked in the brick industry. One of them would take me for a ride on the narrow gauge railway. Then many poppies grew there in the fields. When I visited family in Tuindorp May 2011, some poppies grew along the Rhine. They bring back fond memories.
