The weather here has been lovely, and the flowers are in bloom. I am waiting for the stars of the show to open, the hollyhocks. They are my very favorite flowers. They are so tall and majestic.
Today the poplar tree was trimmed. This is the before picture. I was amazed at the speed and efficiency of the tree trimmers. They are so talented. Next week they will be back to do the huge pine tree in my backyard. It's a relief to get the big jobs done. I have been budgeting carefully to make it work. Fortunately, my hobbies are simple and inexpensive. I love to ride the bike with Lula, read on the porch, garden, knit, and write.
I got to visit with several different neighbors today. Many of us stop and chat when we are walking our dogs. We ran into Lula's old family while visiting the horses and goats across the street. The little girls were so happy to see her. It was a sweet reunion. We will probably continue to meet up with them on our evening walks when it's cool.
Today I bought a set of two gliders for the front porch. They are made of teak wood, and have a small table in between them for your food or coffee. This is the first time in twenty years that I have had a new piece of patio furniture. I bought my last wicker chair at the Salvation Army. I spent a wonderful afternoon outside in the front garden, enjoying a cafe au lait, the fresh air, sunshine, and lull of the chair. I've always loved rocking chairs and gliders. They are so comforting and relaxing. How about you?
