company, fish babies, Game of Thrones, thunder, weeding, wood frog

this morning I got up and went out to the garden to enjoy it before the rain came…

20140628-202311-73391593.jpgbeautiful morning and the garden smells wonderful as there is alyssum planted all over the place…

had tea and read some of the fifth Game of Thrones book…

eventually I did a bit of weeding and as I worked around the pond I spotted this little guy…

20140628-202749-73669610.jpgfrom my research I think it is a wood frog… very exciting as we’ve never had them visit the pond before… for quite a few years we had leopard frogs spend time here, one year we actually had four…

then, just as the thunder started I spotted three fish babies in the pond… they are about an inch long so will likely survive… wasn’t able to get any pics but will try tomorrow…

the rain came down in buckets…

remember, I watered the plants last night, lol..

big girl pants, company, goldfinch, hot tub

after a short nap tonight, while I was making dinner, a lovely guest arrived for their dinner…

20140609-214956-78596702.jpghad a few minutes to take some shots and am looking forward to checking out the camera photos…

had a visit with a friend and then went out and started emptying the hot tub…

20140609-215251-78771492.jpgthe last few weeks there has been lots of foam so I think it is a good plan to put in fresh water… hope I have the time to start filling it tonight, but that might not happen until after work tomorrow…

some days those big girl pants seem to fit fairly well…

company, decisions, garden, planting, scattering ashes

started planting while it was still shady in the garden, but ran out of soil so couldn’t do any more for the time being…

my grandson arrived and the two of us planned next weekend’s activities around the scattering of George’s ashes…

once the plan was made we had to decide on the location which took us a while…

20140607-214109-78069509.jpgthen we headed out to do a few errands…

ate lunch, picked up some soil, checked out plants, grabbed a few things we will need on the weekend at the Dollar Store and found some fish for the second pond…

came home, had a rest and basically finished the planting…

20140607-214428-78268429.jpgthroughout the day the elm tree has been raining down thousands of seeds… the pond was full of them even though we cleaned a bunch out…

20140607-214613-78373711.jpgwe got all the planting paraphernalia put away and my helper was picked up… I sat out in the garden enjoying the day…

20140607-215431-78871488.jpgit was lovely to have his company today:-)…
