Storms and Sunshine

We have been VERY fortunate to have one of the best summers (weather-wise).  We got our first fall storm over the weekend.  It was the kind of stormy day where you want to curl up with a good book under a warm blanket.  But alas..... we had to work.  And it was busy!

Today it is sunny and absolutely GORGEOUS outside.  We plan on taking a long beachcombing walk later on this evening.

We finished painting the fence.  My bulb order arrived so as soon as the temps dip a little more, I can get those put in and hopefully have some color next spring and summer.

Before we moved in

pressure washing

Finished.  We color matched it to the tree, and in reality, it is more
 of a deeper color like the leaves on the tree. 

We also got the trellis built and painted.  Planted three fragrant honeysuckle.  I'm excited to see what it looks like next year after filling out a bit.
