Summertime!




We are deep into summer here in South Georgia. My garden is beginning to fade with the heat, but there are some plants that just seem to thrive in the hot, dry, Georgia summer. My zinnias, dahlias, daylilies, and lantana are perking up the backyard now. I have one more month before school begins again and several projects to finish before then. I have been sewing quite a bit lately and have a couple of pieces of old furniture yet to paint. David and I ran off to the beach last weekend and had a great time. It is amazing what a little sand, sun, and surf will do for the soul.




We really need to do this more often. We are looking forward to visiting with family during the remainder of the month of July. I hope you all are having a great, relaxing summer. See you soon!

Spring is Coming!

After a long gray winter, signs of Spring are popping up. I know it is really too early to start planting, but my fingers are itching to get started. Easter is really late this year (April 24), so I know I need to wait. Now is a good time to plan. I have been looking at garden catalogs and I want everything. I must pare it down to a few additions this year. I am looking forward to visiting Bethany in Raleigh during Spring Break. We are planning a visit to a farmer's market and large flea market. I wonder what I can stash in my carry-on bags? Hope everyone is doing well. Love to hear from you.....
