spent a little time the other day cleaning the shelf beside the hot tub…
there were tons of vines from the Virginia creeper and dead leaves around the circle of friends…
it looks so much tidier now…
thinking about what plant might go on the shelf when the weather starts and stays warm…

Wednesday, the kids met us for breakfast and then came by to pick up a few items from the giveaway collection…
while they were here, they pulled down some wayward Virginia creeper along the garage and moved some unsightly cord off the pond bridge…
then they ran over to Nestor’s to get me a shubunkin to add to the pond… there weren’t any available, so they came home with this beauty…
which was a tad bigger than I expected, lol… they all seem to be getting on fine in the school so we are good;-)…

my grandson came by today for lunch and to do some trimming of the Virginia creeper for me…
I had emptied the hot tub as we had planned to move it out of the way so that a ladder could go up next to the house…
unfortunately, it wasn’t being cooperative so he ended up climbing onto the tub and reaching as high as he could…
it was a stretch but he was able to remove most of the overgrowth… it already looks much better…
I think the plan is for he and Jeff to come by on Friday to move the tub, make a few repairs to the deck and finish the trimming…
the light is already much brighter in the main floor tv room…
one of the things they will do on Friday will be to put that piece of siding back where it belongs, lol…
guess I won’t be refilling the tub for a few days, lol…
