OT backyard project progress x 3
 

Those who may rememebr here's the before and after of the patio project,
tomorrow's the big day. The smoke from the CA fires have ruined the view of
the valley, so we'll have to come up with 'plan b' for the ceremony site.
But the yard is as done as its gonna get.

Boy is my back killing me. Thats 3000lbs of flagstone, and 4000 lbs of
rocks.... First pic is June 6 (I think) second pic is today. Caterers are
coming to start setting up tables/umbrellas in a few minutes.

OT CA smokey pics x2
 

Here's a pic of the sun at ~8 AM, orange in color. And shadows are soft
edged, the quality of light orange tinged. 2nd pic: The hills in the
distance (maybe 1/2 mile??) are obscured by smoke, usually one'd think that
was fog, but its smoke. The fires are actually miles away, so no danger,
but this is the weirdest I've ever seen it..

Wow. You did a yeoman's job on that patio, Kathy. Too bad about the view,
but the important things in the pictures will be smiling, I'm sure.

Are you going away or anything? Hope to see lots of OT pictures here!

Fantastic job there, Kathy. Now that you've finished there, I've got a few
unfinished jobs that could use...oh, well. Worth the try.

Very nice, Kathy.

We have just had bluestone paving laid down. Not quite finished but it is
looking great.

Congratulations to you & yours Kathy, now white catts open at my house so
hope this Epiphyllum will suffice.
If you would like a leaf cutting, will bloom every year on your anniversary.
Good Luck & hope your back gets better.

I had a L purpurata 'suavissimum' (solid white) that was just a day or 2
past its prime, but there were 2 spikes and about 7 flowers, so I used those
as my bouquet and filled with some fern for greenery. I'll email you my
address for the cutting. Thanks Wendy, you're a pal!
