A Gardeners Work is Never Done

Yesterday was only in the 50's here but a very good day to work in the garden.  I had gathered these rocks along the roadside and yesterday placed them in my garden.  This is in the front of my house and the dirt has been moving down the hill (since I've been killing the honeysuckle that invade my plants).  I'm hoping the rocks will help keep the soil in place.  I think it looks pretty good...only need about 5 more loads of free rocks!

This is looking down from the top all that green on bottom is honeysuckle which was here since we moved in 20 years ago.  The honeysuckle does a good job of holding the hillside in place and it smells good when blooming but I would love to have that 40 ft of hillside as garden space!  I can't do the hillside myself and it will cost way too much to have a landscaper do it...so I just do what I can.

 There are a few more flowers blooming now.

These are Lily of the Valley from my Mom's yard.  She had a huge patch of growing under a big maple tree that were there forever.  Wonder if they are still growing there...the house sold to a young guy he probably didn't appreciate them!

The  daffodils bulbs I planted the being of March are starting to bloom!

These are pretty yellow iris - they only grown about 8" tall and bloom several times during the summer.

 I better do something else today besides play on the computer....have a great day!

More Estate Sale Treasures

More Estate Sale Treasures

Vintage Pitcher and Six Tall Glass

Perfect for summer ice tea or lemonade

Gardian Service Hammered Aluminum Pan

Vintage Chenille Bedspread

This one is really a pretty blue and has no damage

Two curtain panels probably from the 1950s

They have some storage stains

I'm thinking of soaking in oxy clean before listing

What do you think should I soak them or sale them as it?

These next two photos are kitchen towels

These could probably use some soaking also

I've not decided if I'm going to go to the garage and estate sales tomorrow.  Keep saying I have enough but there is always the thrill of the hunt...plus it gives hubby and I something fun to do on Saturdays!  Hope everyone has a great weekend!
