The End of a Busy Day

Well I just came in from cutting the back lawn. The grass was midway between my ankles and calves! I thought I would end the day with a few pix from the garden front and back. This pic is looking out from my deck. Not much in bloom I'm afraid as the place looks like a jungle from all the rain we had this year. For the first time ever, well since I've lived here, the wild grape vine in the back is producing grapes. That is what is closing in all the spaces between the trees.

Here's the 4 o'clocks down my laneway. They are bent over from the heavy rains we've had and this year we just haven't gotten around to tying them up.











It's a little dark but here is the front lawn. That's a Rose of Sharon tree in bloom. It has pale pink flowers with burgandy centres. My girlfriend planted a "stick" from her tree when we moved here. It only blooms on one side because it is shaded by the huge Maple tree on our lawn. At one time everyone on this street had a tree like this but mine is the only one left. I tremble whenever we have a t-storm cos we would surely lose the house if it fell that way.










No my living room is not on fire LOL The paint was supposed to be peach, but I guess Martha Stewart is colour blind, cos it sure looks orange to me!!!









Time for a little R&R , gonna watch some tv for the rest of the evening.


Oh-Oh guess I won't be able to get in the living room ha ha ha!

BTW the brightness in my kitchen is from the solar tube. No lights are on yet, except the one in the "orange" living room!

I have to work tomorrow so I probably won't be around til Saturday night. I work Saturday too. Gonna be a zoo cos both draws for Friday and Saturday are $17 million each!
Have a good weekend everybody.
