Nattering

I hope your tea tasting was a lot of fun. I've never been to a "tasting" event. Did you find something new?

I'm sitting here listening to the Bird on a Wire CD by Toby Lightman. She's a new find from some music we heard on Boston Legal. I couldn't find copies locally so I've sent you one from Amazon. I don't know if you'll like her or not. Her voice is amazing and this CD she does a wide range of different styles from country to 70s funk. I'm really curious if you'll like her or not---regardless, make sure you listen to Better, Weight of the World and (my fav!) My Sweet Song.

I've "finished" planting for this season. I'll add a few things come fall and I still have a ton of hardscape projects to work on and interest items like the bench plans you sent me. I figure those will get me through the hot months. I was working on the side bed yesterday afternoon adding some purple coneflowers I'd found and had quite a parade of people stop, introduce themselves and compliment the garden. That was pretty enjoyable. Faye and I even met the 100+ pound rottweiler that lives behind us. Her name is Livia and she's a sweetheart. If you want to meet your neighbors, plant a garden to work in and have a sweet dog that gets along with everyone. Of course you already knew that since you've been doing both for years.

Blech! Can't believe tomorrow is Monday. I don't know where the time goes!!
