Day 635, Hang time


Hibiscus plantged in pots by the pool
 Today is going to be a little less busy and we started the morning off by going to brunch with good friends Dr. Nick and Ann.  The five of us all met at a great breakfast spot called Joey's on 122nd and May.  The food was out of this world and it set the ton for a day of over eating.

After breakfast, Robin, Brad and I went to TLC nusery to pick out some plants that Robin wanted and a few trees.  Several of their pine trees in the back yard need to be replaced and Robin wanted to show Brad what she had in mind.  Several hours later Brad had purchased a small forest and we loaded our plants and several bags of soil and headed home.  Luckily the trees will be delieverd and planted another day.

Robin and I spent the afternoon planting plants and amending the soil with the bags of rich black topsoil.  I pruned a huge pile of branches off several trees around the patio it really looked good.  It was nice to get the back yard and patio cleaned up, washed down and ready for summer.

At 5:30 pm we had to rundown to the art festival and pick up a painting that Robin had done with an artist as part of a local fundraiser and pick up a metal art piece that Brad had purchased.  We quickly loaded up the art pieces and then headed to dinner at a local burger joint called Tucker's, it was excellent.

We enjoyed the evening, soaked in the hot tub and made a 10 pm run for icecream.  It was a good day.
