    We enjoyed yesterday's pleasant weather. Cindy is here for the holiday.  She spent much of the day working in my flower gardens.  Weeding and mulching.  It was a day off for Bekah and Jay but they were both here at times.  Jay picked some yellow squash, a  cucumber for everyone, a few for the stand,  and some greens.  No signs, some people going by saw them in the stand, stopped and bought everything.  There will be more to pick tomorrow.

    Today we will be celebrating the Fourth.  I may take a break from the festivities and do some planting this afternoon.  This morning Cindy and I are going to Andrew's to watch the boat parade.  First I need to fill the bird feeders.  I washed and filled the hummingbird feeders yesterday.

    May God bless you and our country on this day, Sally
