We enjoyed some beautiful rain yesterday afternoon, and it's threatening to storm in our area again today. It will be most welcome, as it's too hot to even go outside to water pots. I did go out this morning for a while, deadheaded some roses, fertilized a few things. There's always something to do in the garden, but isn't that why most of us have gardens? When it gets too hot, I can always slip into my garden shed and get a respite from the heat. Love to sit in there and update my calendar of 'things to do', and plan things to come. Trying to decide where I can place a potting bench that will be shaded and have access to water. Something else to see if my 'builder of all things' will let me add to his ever-growing list.

| My area is the small building on the right. |
 |
| Come in, see my space. |
 |
| A cabinet my Honey made me back when I was loving everything country. Now it stores fertilizers and such. |
 |
| Enamel top table. The 'furniture' in here is all old, found or homemade. |
 |
| More good storage in another old cabinet that remains from my antiquing days. |
 |
| Dragonfly lights, of course. |
We have lots of birdhouses in the garden, several occupied at the time. Wrens, Bluebirds, Tufted Titmouse, Carolina Chickadee, and Flycatchers use the houses, but the other birds prefer the bushes and trees. A few of the houses...

| My Honey built the houses , all of them out of scrap wood. Painting was my job. |

| Bluebird feeding little ones. |
One more... then it's time to go out and water a few things. The rain missed us today. If you need rain, I hope it found your garden.
