The Last of the Daylilies
As July comes to a close, so does daylily season. Not too many daylilies left around the house above Heck Creek after a year of totally no garden maintenance due to the ankle incident.

The May Report and Catch Up
Oxeye daisies |
Sitting on the ground in the cold waiting for someone to come and pick me up after breaking my ankle, I thought some profound thoughts. One was that time is short and I had better get on with doing those things I have always wanted to do. I've always wanted a studio where I could make my crafty messes. The original plan for the house above Heck Creek included a largish area downstairs for this, but when the plan needed to be downsized, the studio was lost. I talked things over with the Ralph, and we decided we could go ahead and build a separate studio. In May the Ralph and his friend, Jerry, rented a track-hoe and began the excavation. Hopefully we can get the foundation poured and the block work done in June.
