I worked on putting the gravel down to make a new path to the Rain Barrels. DH did not like walking on the Red Lava Rock, so I made a new path with the gravel only. It looks smashing and I'm worn out. It took me 2 days to finish it and last evening I worked until dark. Some of the bags of gravel were full of Barb's garden soil because her irrigation sprinklers had gone off on top of the gravel where Barb had raked it out. I just scooped it up and put it in bags, 12 bags of stone. Only 4 of them were muddy. Big job, but I am proud of my work.
We got a few minutes of rain today, but it was only a light sprinkle. I almost lost a container to this heat because I have not been watering as I should. I need to pay closer attention and see when the plants are wilted early in the morning. I am very thankful to have a good shady tree in the back to keep my potted plants under.
The surgery for DH's macular hole has been cancelled until further notice. It's a problem between the doctor, surgery center, and our insurance. They will work it out and do the paperwork and then they will call him with the new date. I hope it won't be too long. He was devastated when they called yesterday afternoon.
The Patio Garden looks naked because I had removed the Silene, and now it's just a sand pile. I want to get some shade out there before I plant anything else in that area. I will take pics of now and later.
Peace & Plenty. .

Before the Silene started growing.
Silene & Tomatoes, etc.
These are the before, and I will get some good pics later after I have planned a decent Patio Garden.
