the sun is shining!!!!!
It is great to see the sun. My plants are dancing. :o That's a great tote.
then we got the 40 mph wind....i flipping hate wasted texas!!!!
How cool is that! Is that a 'personal' keeper or are you going to sell it?
naaah i am keeping my little guy....; that came home with me....i passed on another i have regrets on not getting...; they don't call me compulsive for nothing; now i am thinking i need to add some spv marguete(sp) instead of some of those tunias....
This will be great! You can change it with you moods and keep it going year round. Hope to see lots of photos. A good time was had by all? (at the show)
oh pod....here is a synopsis of my trip...it is kinda funny and long so prepare yourself for the length and make yourself a strong drink or cup of cocoa..:
the tool carry fun to look at, only 12 bucks out of pocket and a lifetime of memories....(grin); i always love the treasures i find down there...; maybe i should start a thread of my roundtop garden finds....hmmmm; what was even more cool was my coffee stop in weatherford texas; i always stop at the starbucks on the way to and fro roundtop....WELL, i had my convertible top down it was such a lovely day....(i also had 7 trashbags of heirloom lilies that i dug up at the house across from the bed and breakfast that i stayed at....THATS a whole nother story...); anyway, about 2 blocks down was a goodwill....i thought hey ....why not just go on in this goodwill...; i go into the goodwill and start looking at the stuff....for some reason i decided to peek in the furniture area..(i drive a 2 seater convertible that is very very very little...what more could i cram in it)....anyway, staring back at me is a little antique green metal bistro table and chairs....I THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO PASS OUT....i casually walk over to the thing and it was mark 10 bucks...OMG ....then i was saying what in the hecktor heath is wrong with this thing.....well, another lady comes up and say that she tried and tried to open the table and couldnt get it to open....she also added that i might could wd40 it....she then walks away.....; then a goodwill person walks over and just opens it up for me!!!! i am still dying inside....what is wrong with this picture....; OH, i have a little 2 seater convertable that is cramed with 7 trashbags of heirloom stuff, my luggage, treasures etc....i tell the goodwill person about the car.....she sez..no prob, lets go see if it will fit...after all it is a folding table and chairs....we take the table out and i take everything out of my trunk....the table slides right in....VICTORY; i go back into goodwill buy some cute clothes...i didn't know weatherford texas had such fashion plates....; i buy my things and go to my car never thinking that the chairs WOULDNT fit.....AHEM, they wont fit.....arrrrrgggghhh; more determined i have the 7 trash bags, my luggage etc out on the parking lot....; i guess now i might as well tell the rest of this stupid story....the little 2 seater car happens to be a bmw z4 convertible; ok...so i said it, and now you can REALLY see the ridiculousness of this WHOLE picture....finally, i am very determined ....even if the dang chairs have to hang out the top i am going to get the dang things to west texas PRONTO....i finally tried to put the chairs in the front seat....WHOOO HOOOOO victory...they fit!!!! with a little more forcing etc....i got all of this in....made it to wasted texas only to have to run around my yard while it is snowing trying to get all my plants in.....do you think i will ever forget this trip....OHHHHHNOOOOOOOOO
Hahaha...funny story SNS! Where there's a will there's a way! I bet you're a riot to go junking with!
oh god i am riot.....via a train wreck(he he)...; but am just a major junker; i couldn't believe the abandonded house across from the bed and breakfast....it was filled with flower beds of neglected lilies...i told the b&b owner that she was REAL lucky i didn't have a shovel in my luggage ....that i would go dig those things out....(come to find out the house is being moved and the lot bulldozed ) she leaves and comes back in with a shovel....she sez go for it....my cousin owns the house and doesn't want the stuff; i am prepared to dig the whole day....; i dont think she was prepared for such enthusiam on my part as she came with me and was starting to get a little aprehensive.....so i stopped at 7 trashbags full of plants....my buddy that i go with was taking photos?!! and laughing...; B & B owner said these lilies had been in the ground for 60 yrs....so who knows....i got some and will try to get them saved from their long drive from south texas..
Aw sheeze... a plant rescue. Wonder what else is in that yard that would come up later in summer. Best wishes with your bulbs Sticks.
The escapade sounds wonderful but did your buddy not ride with you? Couldn't have unless they were a hood ornament? LOL
no actually i drive to athens tx where she lives....we then get in her suv and go to round top....otherwise we wouldn't have a prayer:)
