Mulch pile

There, the first five yards of bark mulch are finally spread.  Unfortunately there is a heck of a lot more garden that needs mulching. Sounds like someone needs to call the garden center for another order. Oh and then I suppose that same someone will have to spread it :)

Summer morning

Sitting out on the deck this morning enjoying the view of my labors. Butterflies were visiting the coneflowers along with a little hummingbird.  I stood silent and still and doesn't the little guy come right up to me and buzz around my head. I should say thrummed around my head. It was absolutely amazing! I half thought he was going to land on me. My husband sitting nearby witnessed the whole thing.
