We've got sunshine!

All of a sudden, it's like summertime here and I can't get enough of the sun and warm air and flowers. I will not complain about the heat this summer (you can mark that down in your little black book)...absolutely not. It rained all last week and through Monday of this week. Why I wore a sweater all day Monday! Then Tuesday, the sun came back!

Our neighbor Fred brought us one last load of pine straw today. Actually, he raked this straw back during cold weather but has been holding it until my back was better. Ann kept telling me Fred had one more load of straw, but they were afraid I would get out and over-do it. How nice is that! They know me pretty well!

Okay, the long legged tower! is not pretty yet! but here's a sneak preview...

My playhouse, that's what this is! Good gosh, maybe I never grew up...except in size!

There were leftover pieces of 2 x 4's and Poppy said he would add a couple on each side of the long legs...but I've been thinking, (imagine that) and have come up with an idea. 

Grapevines! Weave grapevine in and out on each side, maybe half way up?? Does that sound pretty, and doable?  Granny Marigold mentioned using latticework, and we did look at the latticework in Lowes, but I got to thinking (again) and well, then I couldn't hang things from the little roof. So, this is it so far!

Better go get a few groceries. Hope to be back soon. Poppy is off tomorrow. That means shingles!! on the little tower!! Hopefully!

Oh, a kitty cat picture of the day...

Both Eli and Smokey were asleep on the bed here beside the computer. Smokey got up, stretched and yawned and snuggled down between Eli's tail and his back legs. 

Love,
