So, wondering what all dad finished while he was here?  Well. in addition to fixing the flood in my basement adding some nice security features to keep out the boogie man, he stripped down my light pole out front to find a really cool copper lantern..
but, we decided it was too much work to try and restore it to its original finish…so we just painted it black.  Actually, I painted it..I’m actually proud that this was a part I did
and, I laid mulch in all the front flower beds..who knew something so simple could look so good.  I think I’m addicted…for the record, I’m a big hopeagri fan!
and, he helped me get all my front porch pots fixed…I’m thinking this is cilantro that is trying to grow
and the early signs of basil, although I think this might be too many in one small place (oops)
and then the summer fern.  I love these things…lets just see if I can keep one alive
