Progression

Busy days in the summer...

The arbor [pergola] is progressing.

(Thanks to Gerry for the pergola word)

When it is done it will have orange roses called "Blaze of Glory" climbing on a trellis on one side, and lavender Wisteria and a lavender Clematis climbing on a trellis on the other.

The iris have bloomed... actually they are getting near done blooming.
The garden is growing! The front row is all peppers, the reason they are staked is that it gets windy out here once in a while and last year I lost a pepper plant in a wind storm.

The next row is tomatoes followed by onions. The back row is a couple of cucumbers and a zucchini, and more peppers that you can't see, and potato plants (3).
Here is a potato plant, my first ever to try.

All for now... Enjoy Summer!

7 reasons why I haven't been blogging

1. Put a path in out front.

2. Planted the Salsa Garden.
3. Planted a Weeping Willow in the back.
4. Planted a Semi-drawf Peach tree.
5. Started an arbor.
6. Had a graduation party for the youngest son (on the left).
7. Dog sitting a Golden Retriever for 3 weeks.

Just a note... I don't get credit for ALL the hard work... my sweetie does!

I finally finished a cq collage - it took forever!

I don't make much art in the Summer.

It's a beautiful day out - and the fresh air calls me.

Whew what a week!

Annie has had a busy week. She is free from her kennel while we work and now has a fully fenced acre and a doggie door into the garage for a daytime bed. She must be totally enjoying her new found freedom. She socializes at the fence with the neighbor dogs and chases birds and watches for cats. She used to love to play when we got home, but now she is too tired.
