            Good Hot Morning to you. There was a little breeze when the Tres and I walked out the door this morning, but it seems to be gone now.

            The so-called Blue Moon was up in the sky this morning and I was able to get the telescope out and look at it for a while. It was big and bright, kind of interesting, but I did not see any aliens on the moon.

            Changed topic: I did get tired of sitting in the house doing nothing yesterday, so I decided to start on the remodeling of one flower bed. The project involves removing all the blocks from around the bed, loosening up dirt in the bed, replacing the blocks, digging holes for three big flowers, and a lot of sweating. I have photos which I will share with you, but no one else.

            In the above photo we see my weed remover, it is difficult for ole senior people to remove the weeds, and we see one of the big flowerpots that we hope to trans plant. In the following photo we see my supervisor Tres laying in the dirt where I was supposed to be working. I think the dirt was cool on his belly.

            In the next photo we see the area with the blocks back in place, which allows me to know where to dig the holes for the flowers. There are roots in the bed and that makes it more difficult to dig. I plan to work on this early this morning after I water the potted plants and get the Alex to school.

            I have photos of blooming moon plants; one plant has 9 blooms, and one plan has its first bloom.

 

Well, I need to get going and get Alex to school. We hope everyone has a good day and that we all stay safe in all we do.

Dirt digger Don!

May today be better than your best day, but not as good as tomorrow!
