Planting flowers

I took a month off to recover from surgery. Exercise is a wonderful thing when you are able to do it. I have been digging holes and hauling rocks from one place to another. The great thing about the water feature we put in at the Barn is where everything came from. The old pump came from the Brookfield house. It used to stand right outside the back porch which also happens to be where Donald proposed to me. The big rocks came from Dave and Eileen's house in North GA. The smaller rocks are ones we hauled back from our Missouri vacation a few years ago. Great memories of that trip. The white mums came from Aunt Alice's and Ally planted them around that tree. Who knew they would spread out to be so pretty. Some of the other mums are from the Wall last year and were donated by Susan. Somewhere in the mix also are remnants of mums from Corey and Nikki's reception. I love it that the G-parents can sit on the porch surrounded by all the reminders of family. We were going to put fish in the little pond but don't know how they would fare with the dog, four cats and assorted wild creatures that show up on occasion.
