Spent some time pulling weeds and doing some light pruning in the backyard. Just a little work with significant aesthetically pleasing results. I planted all the zinnia plants that my daughter and I started from seed, watered our pumpkin plants and added some geranium to my planters near my front door to replace the leggy pansies that are now in the recycle bin. Things are looking good!
I also discovered I have a bird’s nest with 3 eggs in one of my hanging planters by the front door. The poor momma bird was startled when I watered near her nest. I promptly left the area to give her a chance to return to her nest and eggs. She doesn’t seem to mind us hanging out near her, just seems to prefer staying dry.
My father is also sprucing up the kid’s sandbox with some new cedar seats. It’s all cut to size and just waiting to be screwed on which I believe is the plan tomorrow. I have to say it again, things are looking good! I’m going to have to take a couple pictures to post.
