Well, been a busy week, like inundated with things I'm supposed to do. And the weather, until today was so hot! Warmer than anything we had all summer.
Didn't walk on Monday as it was too hot; so I went to the pool instead even though I don't like the aquafit instructor on Monday. Monday morning, a few minutes after I got home, the tree people, who were supposed to arrive in the afternoon, showed up to do major pruning on our trees. But their chipper broke down and I had a pile of tree prunings on my front lawn until late Tuesday. (the guys Monday said they didn't know whether it was the equipment or the (different) crew, but it was very hot on Monday.)
Tuesday, was the Ottawa Hort. Society meeting and autumn show. I took 7 items and brought home 6 ribbons. And a "Best in Show" Edibles for my scarlet runner beans.
Got back to the pool yesterday, but the instructor who was a sub, but good, didn't come. That was OK. I can give myself a good workout w/o an instructor.
This morning, I got in a walk for about an hour.
Here's a pic of my winning items from the Hort. Society. BTW, red and blue ribbons are the reverse in Canada from what they are in the USA - Red is 1st and blue is 2nd. The other 1st prizes were for my Fountain Grass Karley Rose and in a category for the hosta leaf with the most holes.
The 2nds were for Tomatillos and a Sedum Autumn Joy. The 3rd was in a category "other garden flower" and was for a hosta flower.
