Warmish
The morning breeze continued right on into the afternoon hot-feeling air.
Today on the agenda, was to make use of the morning breeze on the east patio. Two plants have been begging to be re-potted. We were prepared with the Fleet and Farm trailer to get the dirt out of the car. Dennis had holes drilled into the bottom of the two pots for drainage.
We were in full combat when company arrived. My cousin Mark, from the Canby area, had gone to Jackson for his class reunion and stopped in for a visit. Quite the visit. The coffee can I had been using to scoop new dirt was replaced by Mark taking the bag of dirt from me. I did take a scissor and cut into the impacted roots so they would have a chance to nestle into the new soil. It didn’t take long and the plants were getting a drink in their new home. I will pick up a smaller bag of potting soil as the dirt will settle as a bit more water will be done. Sweet.
The entire time, we had a great visit with Mark.
As Mark was getting ready to get home, two vehicles pulled into the drive. Dennis’ daughter Sue, and her daughter’s family were here for a visit. They had been in Sioux Falls for a bridal shower for Dennis’ youngest granddaughter.
When five thirty found our little home cleared out and quiet, I felt weak. It had been a very full, rather hot day.
If I think of anything earth shattering, I will fill you in tomorrow.
With that I take my leave. ♥
