Hi again!! Cloudy and raw here, which is kind of a relief so I can stay in!

I'll attach photos of the deck furniture. Since we are in the Adirondacks, about 10 years ago I bought Adirondack furniture (not from China). I try to keep it painted so it lasts. For some reason it NEEDED to be turquoise, right from day one. I like the color combined with the sky color and the purplish of the mountains. (I never said I wasn't weird, especially about colors!)

That took about 8 hours (there's also a loveseat, rocker, etc). Then I went back to planting delphiniums (4 dozen) and hollyhocks (4 dozen), trumpet lilies, and moving monarda and Siberian iris to the wildflower gardens.

Argh! i'm filthy, sore, and striped with turquoise paint!!
