My brother had a red tractor. LOL I'd love to have that old car but it's long gone.

I have to tell you, Marshall doesn't take a lot of interest in the gardens other than to oooo over the flowers when I say, "Go look at the lilies," or "Did you see the roses blooming today?" He's seen me out taking photos of the chicken planter, rocks, the dragon, etc. but he hasn't seen any of these threads. He just knew I was taking photos for "my garden people."

So I finished the path next to the new dahlia bed yesterday. You know what he said out of the blue? "You need one of those old iron fences to go between the path and the dahlias. That would be really pretty." I told him they were probably pretty expensive. Again this morning he said, "We need to find a piece of one of those old iron fences to go next to your path."

He does have a good eye for design, much better than me. I'm always asking him for his advice on where to plant something. I guess I'd better be looking for a piece of old iron fence. And I guess I've found his gardening niche - garden art. LOL

Anyway, here's the path, minus the old iron fence.
