Time for gardening
Its a gorgeous day here, so we packed up the truck and hit our fave nursery in Austin- and MAN was it busy! We knew it would be, but it was fun to see it all a buzz with activity...amazingly, I bought NO plants, as I'm specifically looking for bluebonnets and tall verbena at the moment and if I don't see those, I don't buy...we also checked out their massive butterfly garden, and were pleased to see that their plants look like ours do - still small, but growing...I ran into the owner of the company I last worked for (he wasn't my boss, but he started the company w/ the dude who was my boss)...he and his family were there to see the chickens, donkeys and enjoy the place...its almost like a zoo or amusement part as much as a nursery...after leaving there, we hit our favorite nursery that sells pretty rock and stone, and found some really cool mexican patio stones for the garden...i'll use them as stepping stones thru the yard, instead of the temporary pebble ones we have now...these look natural, and are a pretty color...400lbs of stone we have to haul out of the truck and into the yard...no problem!
