Bernice's hubby Cliff was kind enough to come and mount the birdhouse cafe for me..I found a thick grapevine root and nailed it to the 4x4 and now I have to find a vine do the 4x4's aren't the only thing you see + he made brackets so now they have to be painted..almost think yard duty is a make work project..

Bernice and Cliff are just too kind..when I was visiting Cliff asked if I'd like a coffee..I said no, then Bernice told me I have to start enjoying my days and not just work...so off Cliff went and made us coffee while I took a break in her pretty garden, so many birdies singing us a song...passing by one of her many (15 or so) lilac trees I stopped to smell, but nope, she made me come back, smell again, take a floweret, hold it in my hand and keep smelling the lilac...then she and CLiff came up with a plan...I am to call some friends (can't this week because of Mel's birthday) on a Monday or Tuesday, plan a dinner and luncheon in the garden for the weekend, then plan the menu and with having company coming I'll have to do something other than work..is that a plan or what...lol

Trying to make me stop working but what do they do..yep, give me an entire basket of calla lillies to plant including planting instructions...
