REDNESDAY




Hello everyone! I'm late posting, but have some good excuses:

1. It's school vacation week
2. I was out in the garden all day, then
3. I was watching a show on pirate ships and, most important,
4. Smokey wouldn't let me!


That's my story, and I'm sticking to it!

Besides Smokey's pic, I only have one other red photo to show you today (and two non-red ones). This is part of my seed-starting station, which is to the right of my computer desk. The seed packets, tags, pots, etc., are on the table above this, to the right.


This is Pulmonaria.


And this is Bridal Wreath.

I hope you're enjoying the week as much as I am! Monday, Boston Marathon Day, was 90F/32C - dreadful for the runners!

    Hi Sue, sounds like a darn good excuse to me! Super surprised to see that I was #1. Love your blooming pics. Raining here today and tomorrow, but it sure is making everything look purdy!
    Hugs,

    School vacation week has been my recent excuse as well!
    Isn't it nice that the weather is finally warming up? Although I wouldn't want to run the marathon in that heat. If I'm being truthful, I wouldn't want to run the marathon....ever....
    Happy Rednesday! :)

    Smokey looks grumpy. Hungry perhaps? :)

    Sue, those are all understandable reasons! Of course, for me, "I had to eat a banana split" is a reasonable reason to me! LOL Thanks for hosting and have a great day!
