Goodness This Week Has Passed Quickly

  Unbelievable how fast the last week has passed. Here is is Wednesday night 8:30 PM and I'm finally getting to posting this week. The only excuse I can use is that the weather has been beautiful and without rain for a few days. That means into the garden this gal goes. There's always a lot of cleanup work to do and checking to see what perennial survived and what didn't. There are a couple of plants still limping along and it remains to be seen if they will survive or not. Some of the garden in front of the house is still a little damp to work in but yesterday I was able to weed and edge 2/3's of it. Now to the garden in the side yard. What a mess! I raked up around the area where my husband cut down a tree. More tomorrow if I can still move my muscles. By the time I get it all done I promise I'll post pictures.
  In the meantime, here's a picture of the marsh marigolds down our road.
And finally, these are my flowers for One Flower Wednesday. I just love the colors I chose, don't you?

  1. Two beautiful blooms! How nice it is to spend time in the garden. We have had two days without rain and Thursday is also calling for sun, so I have been in the garden from early morning until dark. The rain is to return on Friday. I think I will need a rest by then.
