Jo Ann, that apple will provide you with some privacy and shade and a pie or two! I can see a bench out there in the future. Good choice.

Wha, that sprinkler is amazing as is your bird house.

Today DH and a friend took out the old falls and hooked up the new one. But we need to rebuild the whole area around the top as it was quite a different shape, but it is much beefier so it will be better. They are testing it to make sure there is no leakage. We will need to rework the path that runs by it as the whole falls got moved forward as they had to be able to hook up the existing liner which got shortened slightly. I may have to cannibalize one of our existing paths to find the right stones needed. Always something.

Started putting the cages around the Paeonia today, but ran out of cages. I also started to bring out more plants from the greenhouse, but was more anxious to get things deadheaded and the final raking done up by the veggie bed. I took some shots of more SDBI that are now out but have two that I can't figure out. Two yellow ones. Help.

Garden is so dry that the tulips and narcissus are wilting. No rain even if they keep saying we are suppose to get showers. But because the endless stream is still pulled apart, I guess I should hope it doesn't come before we get that back together. Patti
