My Dream Weaver has huge hips this year also! We're canning this week--maybe I'll make rose jelly? It's my first time canning, so we're experimenting with all kinds of stuff. I had one jar erupt all over the place yesterday as it was cooling. What causes that? I need to find a forum for canning, I guess!
Last night we had a massive storm. Today the grass is brilliant glowing green from all the lightning. It looks like we got a little over 2" of rain....in less than 1 hour. The weather service said winds were 70 mph at the Air Force Base near me and I don't doubt it, judging by the size of pots that blew around the yard.
I think today should be just a gardening day. I'll finally plant the roses that have been patiently waiting in pots, and prune the HTs for fall bloom, and maybe start the fall garden!
If I can resist pulling weeds, that is. I love weeding right after a good rain!
Too bad today is payroll day and I can't *really* devote the whole day to gardening. Sigh...I hate it when work gets in the way of play.
