A hot, humid summery day filled with ice cream, gardening and the pool. We filled the pool, put new sand in the filter, installed the skimmer and hoses, all the time hoping that the rusting panel will hold the liner and water. After 21 years, one panel is crumbling away and cannot be repaired any longer. I have clocked hundreds of miles in this pool and I'm anxious to start swimming again tomorrow.
Can there possibly be a more lush flower than non stop begonias? I potted a dozen today in combination with sweet potato vines, lobelia and coleus. There are at least another twenty pots to fill, each with a different mix of cascading flowers and vines.
Children playing at the lake's edge, ice cream dripping from cones and chins, the sun glinting gold on the water. It feels like July not May.
