good day to be outside

Well today was a great day to be outside,  not overly hot a nice cool breeze going and the temp stayed around 17 degree’s so

all round a good day for outside.

So today we went up to Canadian Tire and bought a pump and got the bike tires all pumped up,  and then Loralee and I went to the green house and picked up a few seedlings and I got them planted in the window boxes (actually hung the planters on the side of the deck) and a couple pots . in the window boxes we put Fuchsia and some small white blooms , the fuchsia is the red and purple combination so it will look really nice with the white flowers.. one planter has the white ones on each end with a fuchsia in the middle and the other has the fuchsia on each end and the white in the middle. once the fuchsia starts to bloom I’ll get some pictures they should be really pretty together.  Then in the big pots I put some Pansy’s , purples and blues and some with white mixed in thru the purple or blue.

After we got that all done Tammy stopped in for a visit so I had a sit down with her on the deck and then we went to the store and picked up a frozen pizza for supper.

After supper Lora and I went for a bike ride and then once we got back from that we took Tango and headed up to Friendship park for a nice long stroll thru the woods.

all in all a nice way to spend a lazy Sunday  :)

Tomorrow I have to throw myself into housework and get some floors scrubbed and the bedroom cleaned and dusted.

Hope everyone has a great Monday!!  and remember
