How Could I Not
With such a beautiful start to the day, how could I not hit the flower beds. The dew point was 52 and it was a go. I had not been out into the flower beds since we had gotten hail earlier in the month. Yup, there was damage control that was needed. There were lengths of branches that were hiding in the Hosta plants. Blossom stems on the Hosta needed to be cut off. Snuggles hung tight until this mid afternoon and then he crapped out and slept under the lilies.
Neighbor Bob’s fire ring was well fed today. There can not possibly be any loose branches left on high. The flower beds look like someone still cares about them.
While I had my butt up in the air among the flowers today pulling weeds and picking up branches, Dennis was busy on the patio. The chainsaw carved Eagle that stands about four feet tall got a good cleaning. Getting the dust out of the crevices via water, suds and a brush made for a good work out. Tomorrow after it is totally dried out, Dennis has several cans of Rustoleum in various degrees of being full of the clear spray that he will use to give the Eagle a look of a shiny luster.
It’s a good thing we have leftovers for supper. Neither one of us will be too perky after we shower up for the night. It was a great day. We can both see that we got something done today.
