Basil


It finally rained a bit on Saturday, and a bit more on Sunday. Sunday morning (8:00) we took Brandy to Cherry Creek. It was so beautiful, it look almost green from the recent rain. We saw a magistic crane(bird) and Brandy got a good swim. When we took her home and gave her a bath. She refused to be in the same room we were in for the rest of the day. If we were in the bedroom she went the living room, if we went the living room she retreated to the bedroom.
I got bitten pretty good by the mosquitoes, but then Leslee gave me some hand santizer to put on the bites, and that solved the problem.
We spent a lot of time in the garden on Saturday. Paul worked on his squirrel trap and I weeded the little garden. The raspberries have not recovered from the transplanting, but the rosemary and tomatoes are doing rather well, and the lady we got the raspberries from gave us some chive and that is doing well. The best news is the basil is thriving. I love the way the basil smells.
Paul has been working on the tile for the front entry all week, he hopes to be done by the end of the week. If he finished we are going to go camping this weekend.
