The plan today was to finish planting the annuals and tomatoes! Storms keep rolling in one after another with dark, dark clouds, wind, downpours. Then it brightens for a bit.... and begins all over again. We really need the rain so we should not complain. However tomorrow we host the annual neighborhood Memorial Day picnic and I so hope it isn't soggy and the rain has stopped. Either way, indoors or outdoors, we'll have a good time with good friends and the potluck dishes will be fabulous.
My husband took off early for washers and a hose attachment for the hoses to water the kitchen garden, but I don't think we'll be needing to water for a couple of days. He was sixth in line waiting for the hardware store to open. Funny how we all hurry to plant and prepare for our short summer season. I dashed out between squalls to snap a few photos of the garden... so bright and colorful in the rain. Happy planting to everyone!

My husband, Neil, and I have just returned from a holiday in the Carolinas, Pie Lady Pat, and experienced our first 'Memorial Day' out in the States. We went shopping, actually. I like your clothes pegs bags. Very handy and pretty too. Love the States and keep going back. Very hot over there, mind you, at the moment - or was a few days ago.
We (husband Richard and I) have enjoyed visiting South Carolina in the winter time and it was delightful. Glad you enjoyed it there. We had a group of 40 neighbors for a large potluck picnic on Memorial Day and it was hot here, too. Fun to share an abundance of good food and friendship.
