From yesterday evening, a shadow . . .

--------------------------------------------------

A hodge-podge of today's activities:

Walking back from the barn after feeding the cats,

clouds over the house this morning . . .

I totally skipped my garden clean-up and maintenance

in August because it was just so-o-o-o hot.

This morning I made up for the missed deadheading in August

and then kept going in the early afternoon.

Probably won't have to do any more garden maintenance until October.

I discovered some Coral Bell seedlings growing in the gravel walk.

They were hidden by overhanging hosta.

I planted them in an area which I'm slowly re-doing . . .

And then found this a bit later . . .

Bad dog.  I found 4 of the 7 and replanted.

So far, she hasn't touched them again.

Theresa and Anya were outside this afternoon.

Anya did some posing . . .

And then, she wanted the camera . . .

Vince, Matt, and Dave are home from their bike trip.

They had a great time.  Lots of stories - all good.
