A mountain of mulch. . . . . . . .

It all worked out just fine on Thursday. The cedar wood chip mountain was 

dumped gently at the top of the driveway late morning.

The sun was out, the breeze was gentle, and the rain showers forecast

for the afternoon stayed away.

Granddaughter Jasmin's boyfriend Kevin showed up and worked with Bob for

 about four hours. I helped by pointing where to dump and spread. . . . . . . . and

 then with the general clean up later. Bob and I showered and crashed on the

 porch with a drink at 7:30 pm - followed with a late for us supper and watched a

movie. We were exhausted as it was almost a seven hour garden job. We

won't need to repeat it for a couple of years as cedar chips hold up well.

Yesterday it rained a lot, heavy downpours accompanied by thunder 

and lightning. We were so glad we managed to complete the mulching job 

whilst the weather was fine.

Today, and for the entire weekend, it will be beautiful with sunshine 

and 75F - my kind of perfect weather before humidity and mosquitoes arrive.

Have a great weekend.
