we're workin' it...

started out the morning early...
there was a heat advisory issued for us...
we later found out it is for tomorrow...
but it got us out and moving sooner than we would have...
pulled everything out of the rocked areas and raked...
picked up sticks...
put things back...
I have 5 vintage windows and a couple chair coushins...
hosed them off...
cleaning kind of day...
cleaned off and out the cold frames...
things are still growing...
and filling in...
Craig washing out the birdbath...
we have dirty birds here...
we tied up the tomatoes...
which have little ones on them and full of blooms...
we started out here and worked our way around to the other side...
washing the under pinning...
it was going green...
and not in the good way...
after a late breakfast...
I headed back out again...
I sat on the deck, but not for long...
no breeze here today...
so I got a couple more photos...
this made me smile...
it just exploded in blooms today...
and a baby praying mantis...
I do not like them...
they kill humming birds...
my light pink knock out rose..
there were some clouds...
and the trees gave welcome shade...
and this is on my list of things to do this summer...
going white...

hope you had a fun day...
