This morning on our walk Rose pulled and like an idiot I let her go. The animal she ran up to was a skunk. She's had 2 baths so far and will get many more during the weekend.

Oh geez! That is bad. I have heard that washing with tomato paste will take care of it.

We tried a big can of tomato juice. She shook it all over our front porch. Finally got some charcoal activated skunk shampoo from Walmart. She doesn't smell as bad but it's still there.. she will get several baths this weekend.

My sweetie has several faults but he does indulge my ideas. This is the start of a rustic flower bed along our front porch.

Along the highway there are cuts in the hills. The limestone rocks flake off in flat pieces free for the taking. We only had stamina for 2 loads because of the heat and humidity but it is a start.

Love the “limestone touch”! Natural versus manmade.

Almost! The rooms are set up, just need a little cleaning. My sweetie decided that we needed an updated bathroom, we don't know when the handyman will be available, so that project might come down to the last minute.

I love it !! Looks beautiful!
My days of hauling stones are over, but brought back many loads from my in-laws land in Mt. View, Arkansas back in the 1980's and 90's.

We put another layer on the planter. Sweetie complained at my request for long, wide and thinnish pieces. The hound is our Primrose, less stinky since I used Poopf on her.

Looks great Vanessa! I am on the lookout for rock to put around our front flower gardens. They have them part way around that were here when we moved in and I'd like them to look more finished.

Vanessa, your front yard is looking great! We have large rocks around our front porch making a planter. Last year we decided to expand it and make the rocks go all the way down the side of the house. Looks much better now. Plus now I have extra places to plant stuff!

My husband is an online shopper and I'm not. Sometimes I don't agree with the stuff he buys but I think he scored some brownie points today. He got me new hummingbird feeder that looks like a windchime. It's hardly been up 5 minutes and they've been slurping the nectar.

| I love that Vanessa! My hummingbirds have been scant this year. Maybe they want a more upscale feeder! |

Vanessa, I love what you did for your front porch area with the rocks and how you set up some furniture. It all looks so welcoming and comfy for good ole summertime porch sittin'!!

This week I've been attending the "Old Eeliable" Germantown Fair. I rode in a tethered hot air balloon and took pictures of chicken rodeo and pen the pig.

This was the last of a set of 6 crystal tumblers. When we were newlyweds in Germany we bought them on a tour to a crystal factory. For years they were stored in their box until one day I thought "use them,they're no good otherwise." One by one they were broken but I wasn't upset. This last tumbler was perfect for a civilized portion of thai iced tea, until a careless gesture sent it bouncing into the sink.
