LOL - I've got a market unbrella over some of mine, and I've got an Easy Up shelter too. It's going to get up to 100 this weekend. This is not like June usually is. This Global Warming is starting to look more serious than I thought.

Mine have such a hard time finding the sun because of the trees. You can not win some time. Joan

Good one Elaine. How thoughtful it was of you to help out Ollie from the heat.
I was trying out my Umbrella that I got for my tropical area yesterday. We are hitting the upper 90's this weekend. I guess it will be my very own little tropical heat wave here on my street...LOL

Some companies are sending umbrellas out to people trying to encourage them to contribute to their cause. I have two so far. I don't use umbrellas and they are too small for my husband. I use them in the yard also to protect plants.

Elaine, Here is my umbrella I was talking about. I'm hoping it will protect the Barrel of EE that has just really taken off with the warmer weather. Sunday and Monday temps over 100 degrees in the forecast!! Sizzling Hot!!

Wish I had a basement. Have to get busy on that greenhouse...soon. Spending all my time working on watering system.. begging for RAIN every day. We've had one shower in about 2 months now. My hubby took this broken umbrella out after I had put a small golf umbrella over Ollie. Much better shade. Garden G. the umbrella really helps. Now I am thinking that our patio umbrella could really be put to use....since we are not using it right now.. Melanie,,, my golden queen dats are about a foot tall now. Elaine
