We took the morning off from the garden... BUT WE WERE STILL WORKING! We were invited by some really fantastic friends (thanks for the scrumptious breakfast burritos that warmed not only our tummies but our hands too!) to serve at a 1/2 marathon water stand... THAT WAS AWESOME! All those amazing athletes running their hearts out! Gotta say... It will never be me. I will always be MORE THAN HAPPY to hand out water and gatorade, though!
After getting up at 5a, I was a bit wiped after lunch, so I took what felt like a three hour nap (Oh my, I hear Gilligan's Island in my head... do you? You're welcome!) but it was just a thirty minute power nap and I felt FABULOUS all over again! So I was up and at 'em out with the Cap'n instructing and supervising the install of the recycled fence sections...
SERIOUSLY... IT JUST CAN'T GET ANY BETTER THAN THIS!
The two front panels were installed at the point this photo was taken with the sun shining down on it like it was a little slice o' garden heaven! I believe when dusk set in, there was one other section installed along the right side.
Okay, I said it couldn't get any better. I lied.
MY FIRST PLANTINGS!!!
The highlight of my gardening day was when I asked The Cap't his opinion on the fencing. His reply melted my heart.
"Whatever you like, honey. I built this garden for you."
