Summer 2012
well it's been a long time since my last post & time for an update.
winter was extremely mild, barely any snow ... spring was warm & dry. summer has been hot & dry. that concludes my weather report.
added some plants to the garden with mixed success (as usual). some things returned from last year & some things didn't (orange lilies actually were there before i bought the house & flourishing). the day lilies are mostly doing well (the first stella de'oro i planted in 2010 finally bloomed). added more to the garden along with more coneflower & rudbeckia. hopefully the heat this summer won't kill the new plants off entirely, i was late in getting a soaker hose around the patio.
not much work has been done on the house. exception being the kitchen & bath sinks. we have running water once again in the kitchen. dad came out for memorial day weekend & replaced the pipes w/PEX pipes. also replaced the bathroom sink w/a pedestal (worlds smallest).
