Early morning

I love early morning when the air is fresh and the dew is on the grass. A new clean day is beginning. I am back home again and the suitcase is put away till another trip. On the way home I stopped at a lovely nursery and bought more flowers to plant and a lovely hanging basket of million bells. The bank has been mulched but is in much need of perennials (Becky, this is where I could use your advice.) All the fountains are working. When we set up the lion fountain there was a little problem with no water coming through the tube in the lion’s snout. We quickly discovered that a bee had made a nest there (last year we forgot to plug it up with a cork) so we had to use a drain unplugger to clean out all this yellow stuff. I put up the lights around the top of the house and on the breezeway. The fire pit is ready and we have lots of wood. (And I have all the fixings for s’mores). This weekend Craig is coming down and Chris and Scott are coming home too. It will be so nice to have family around. Are you having a picnic for Memorial Day?
