BRICK EDGING THE FLOWER BEDS
OH- AFTER WE GOT BACK FROM FEEDING THE CATS AND THE CHICKENS- WE DECIDED TO GET THE BRICK WORK DONE. BY THE END OF THE SUMMER I WOULD LIKE ALL THE FLOWER BEDS SURROUNDED SO WE CAN WEED EAT WITHOUT TAKING OUT THE BLOOMERS. ITS GOING TO BE 60 OUT TODAY. K&G CALLED FROM WAY DOWN SOUTH TO SEE HOW THE CHICKS WERE- AND ITS 70 THERE AND PRETTY. K WORRIES ABOUT HIS CHICKS WAY TOO MUCH....LOL
This was our little project last night- removed the concrete block pavers and Craig will use them to finish the rest of his circle bed. I told you I had plans for that pile of bricks. We are getting them from a friend who tearing down an old house and these used to be a chimney. The others we have gotten from different places. I like it that they have a history and are not being thrown in a landfill somewhere.
Aged bricks look better than new ones to me anyway.

Their house in southern Illinois- where they feed thousands of hummingbirds every year and the same ones come back to see them each spring. Paula sent me an email last Sunday and said that the hummingbirds were starting to come in, a sure sign of spring.
Dad said once that they have hundreds of rose of sharon bushes that the birds love.
