When I was working in the yard, Echo kept bringing me her ball so we could play.
Gail discovered how to keep the bird bath from getting discolored -- put a teaspoon

The fence side of the back yard. The fence will soon be covered with sweetpea vines.
The street side of the yard with lots of day lilies getting ready to bloom. Portulaca are
in the planters for mom. They are her favorite flower.

Climatis on the left and my little tomato, pepper and herb garden in the back of the yard.
The back of the house.
And a little cluster by the driveway to welcome Gail home.
