Pass the Gypsy on the leeward side

There are 332 posts....must be time to start over.....

oh that's a pretty one moon what is it?

Rose of Sharon....Hibiscus syriacus, but I am not sure of the variety.

that's pretty...I like it...does it have a scent?

Not really to speak of.....just sort of green smelling. Most Hibiscus are scentless.

Green smelling? I laugh because I have heard that soooooo many times from my grandad! Been a long time since I heard it (or read it in this case) so it gave me a good chuckle...I bet you even wrinkled up your nose when you said green smelling

Hawaiian Hibiscus have a good scent.

This one is Hibiscus waimeae subsp. waimeae, Koki'o Ke'oke'o, the most pungent of Hawaiian Hibiscus.

Progress for the day.

Posts going up complete with hurricane ties, tar paper, and fastened with # 10 Simpson Strong Tie Nails (to County Code).

The girder is set.

The floor joists are placed.

Next is bracing and blocking, but enough for today.

Morning everyone! Looks like a nice, strong addition, Dave.

Smiley, I see what you mean! I didn't know Moon was over here.

Dave, aloha kakahiaka! Your addition is looking good!

Dave, I have a question. When it is morning AM here but still evening PM there, do we say aloha kakahiaka or aloha ahiahi??

Nice work, dave! I almost missed this one too.....

when my kids sleep in my husband says "Good Mor-noon". At this point, they just groan.

haha someday they'll say it to their own groaning kids

you have a point there, Lynnie.

My brug fell over about 1000 times in the wind yesterday. Just thought I'd share. I hope it survives, it was in a top-heavy pot. So we put it in a better pot, but I have to actually repot it yet.

All right before I bring it in. Oh well.

Good Morning Ladies. Hope you are all feeling fine and fit this AM. Spent yesterday running errands...Jim home today so guess it will be some tree planting and yard work....have a pleasant, sunny day.

Moon

you have a good day Moon, and everyone else too. Gotta get on with the day myself.

You can go get those other 2 trees!!!

oh, oh...
Am I still dreaming or did Gypsy camp out in two different places???

Helloo, better get my head out of oven and figure out where y'all are. lolol.

Oh my gosh, Dave, awsom on the addition!

I started a thread cause the other one was toooo long and then 30 minutes later Moon started one cause I don't think she saw mine

so yes we are temporarily camped in two places!

Hey, Seed...ooops, maybe I should say, Hello, Seed....grin. When I logged on this AM saw that the thread had over 300 posts so started a new one. It is an automatic thing for me.... sorry you got "misplaced" grin.

Have a great day all....off to get a little accomplished....maybe. Grin

Moon

JJ, good luck find the switch..whew trying to hold off on it. yep, gotta pull on the sweats and jackets!

Hello, Moon, lol no problems, will morph into two and camp in both places, always wondered what it would be like to be in 2 plaqces at once!

hehehe...

Going to get to Michaels today, just to browse and hopefully not get into too much trouble.

What you all doing this fine day.

packaging all the seeds I collected is my goal for the day Seedtosser

Wow, thats a major deal! Tell me do you keep records, dates etc on all the seeds?
you sure have plenty.

I used to keep a map on my gardens. I have 7 sections that all have names.
But sadly this year, renamed to the jungles, lol.

these are just the seeds I collected from my yard and the neighbors...I'm packaging them up to share with you guys and some to keep for my self...but some I have no clue what they are...been trying to get them identified

hey where'd everybody go?

Good morning Seed, yes I thought my eyes had crossed in my sleep too was seeing double on the forem this morning lol. Smiley only two days left hang in there girl. JJ the switch is at the bottom of the stairs on left so take a flash light and go for it LOL. Frost on my pumkin for sure this morning. Good morning Trina I see you and chapalla have it covered so to speak. Venice hope you are warm and cozy. Dave nice looking addition, glad tsunami didn't affect you that bad. Was reading where on northern island of Niua-Sau Sau Beach Fale was leveled and Apia(samoan capital) and Pago Pago (american Samoa's capital) was hit hard. Amazing how an earthquake can cause this much disaster so far away from source. I'm with Smilely, think I would put addition on stiltz way above sea level. All have a beautiful day, gone to drain the coffee pot.

OOps Hey Lynnie, didn't mean to leave you out you are important toooo.

my eyes are crossing...

Just drink another cup of java, type and send, somebody will see ya Smiley lol

lol Julie!
