We interrupt this garden tour for a bit of R & R. Ahhh. I'm feeling ever so much better after a little respite in the hot desert sun. We just got back from visiting my brother and his family at their ranch home in northern California, AkA: Frank's Spa and Grill. The go-to house. An oasis really. He totally spoils us with his amazing BBQ and hospitality. I don't think we ever stopped eating or laughing. Wonderful times for sure. But alas, I am home now and slowly stepping back into my life. Still have some unpacking yet to do, a few orders to fill. (Thank you all for your patience.)
Upcoming events; later today, friends from afar will be stopping by, and tomorrow a BIG front yard landscape project begins. I'm excited that we're finally getting back around to this. Even though I'll be hiding in the house (with the cat) when it happens. Especially when the tractor rumbles in. Yikes. I know it will all be good when the dust settles though. Keeping my fingers crossed. Will report back.
so glad you could get away to spend time with family and relax and reboot! can't wait to see what's going to happen in your yard!

It is nice to get away from the everyday things now and again. It's even better when family is a part of it. Glad to hear you had a wonderful little break.
