a very productive weekend...

we did get the deck cleaned off and moved around...

lockers are up there and I didn't get a photo of it all...

next time, I promise...

I had this bright idea and so far, it is working great...

weed cloth for a shade...

meanwhile the roses started blooming...

finishing touches went everywhere...

Craig scrubbed and Doug spray painted for me after Paula and I put the stickers on...

we need to paint the bottoms yet...

I am in pain- but things got done and I tried my best to keep up the whole 5 days...

taking some down time today...

Doug and Paula camped out in the yard the whole weekend...

Paula and Doug...

DH and I attached this to the bridge...

trying to decided if I want to paint the center hanging thing white/ black/ or something else...

the garden is doing good...

we just need some rain- missed it all this weekend...

the corn is up and growing in the field behind us...

we had a good weekend- hope you did, too...

now for some R&R and a nap or two...

to honor those...

Thank you to those who died and to those who lost someone very special to them.

Forever remembered and always in my prayers.

our town square...

yes, we still have brick streets...

the park in the center of the square...

we are not the county seat, so no courthouse...

Main Street...

we have lost so many businesses over the years...

this is the only bank left here now...

Columbian Building...

our civic center...

the Wigginton Hardware building...

it has been many things over the years...

it no holds a children's theater in one side and a woodworking shoppe in the other...

I am majorly sore this morning, but got of bed on my own...

we did a lot yesterday and have more to do today...

have a good day!

Happy Friday...

just wanted to get a quick post in here before the weekend excitement happens...

these are the front windows of a new business coming to our little town...

they are hoping to have it open by fall...

lots of remodeling to do on the inside...

I jumped out of the van for closer images....

and the images of the windows combined with the reflection of the sky and square are awesome...

that I just had to share these with you...

first thing this morning, we are cleaning out the shed...

I am so ready...

but I'm not...

;0)

have a great day!

while I am waiting on the rain...

and the guys to get home from work...

thought I would do a little post here...

medium pink knock out rose is blooming...

honey suckle, too...

the darker pink/red knock out is so pretty...

I need to dead head the iris..

but they still have so much color...

the lighter ones...

took these last eveing...

its so much cooler here today...

highs in the low 50s and completely cloudy...

columbine are winding down...

and will start seeding soon...

yellow knock out rose will be blooming this weekend...

I will post photos when it does...

got big plans for this weekend...

will have at least one guy here to work for 5 days in a row!

got 2 days where they will both be here and we have plans...

shed is getting cleaned out, for one...

and we are getting the rest of the plants planted, for sure...

painting a few things, too...

a couple cook outs...

and some much needed naps will get going on...

have a safe weekend and remember to enjoy the time you had who are on the other side now...

grateful for all the veterans and what they give up...

their families who support them in what they do...

take a moment to pray for our country and the ones who defend her...
