Most of the day was spent in the garden. Pam came over to help plant beans. We also planted a few rows of corn and some companion flowers - nasturtiums and zinnias and marigolds. It's an added bonus that flowers have a purpose in the garden.
When Dad started furrowing rows for the corn, I grabbed my camera.
There was something about the moment that seemed special.

This vase is from a recent yard sale excursion.
I'm loving it more and more. I can't wait to put hydrangea cuttings in it.

And finally, I spent my Pike's Nursery gift certificate.
I bought two Gardenia bushes for the east side of the house. That's the side we come and go from the most and I want it to look pretty.
I'll always think of these as Penny's Gardenias.
