So pretty! Do they have a fragrance?

Went by Lowe’s for those 3” screws I need. Went by the perennials to see if they had any more lavender ... all gone, which was sort if a relief since the plants were not cheap. Sale rack had a few interesting items, but not interesting enough to pry my wallet open. Called the greenhouse where I got my $2.90 marigolds ... all sold out. I don’t want my lavender to be ‘lonely’.

About to hook up my “sled” & head for the pole barn on a lumber run, since I have screws. I’m laughing because I am getting comments on my latest 2 projects like “hey, we need one of those!” (log holder & shelf/rack). 😉

“...but not interesting enough to pry my wallet open.”

Me, either.

Sis and I went out to lunch today, then to Walmart for some misc. things and to look at the Garden Center.

Things are looking really nice, but it is PACKED with merchandise.

Usually after Father’s Day things wind down. They were marking down some of the more expensive stuff, we noted.

I am going to light a fire under my butt come morning (when it’s cool) and get the rest of the things planted - just a few more sunflowers to pop in and a few Zinnia.

Things are doing OK, but the dry weather is not helping. There’s just something about RAIN that makes all the difference. :( (I think we talked about that a few weeks back!)
