Above pictures taken about a week ago. The bridal wreath spirea in Andrea's yard really came back nicely this year. We were really worried about it based on what is looked like last year.
Here are the peonies about a week ago.
And here they are now.
Cigar today too.

Got some weeding done this morning. Didn't spend a ton of time on it but it feels good to do a little every day. Dale's able to help out a lot more in the yard this year due to him not having to get ready to go up to the island which is nice since I don't feel like I have to do as much to keep up with it all. Lit up a Romeo y Julieta this afternoon and it was fantastic.
Very quiet in the neighborhood today. Not surprising due to it being Memorial Day weekend. However, because of the gorgeous weather of late I’ve gotten used to there being a lot more activity outside.

The Lily of the Valley is blooming and boy oh boy is it fragrant.

Warren came over for dinner last night. While Dale was grilling this little guy came out for a visit.

The ferns and the bridal wreath spirea did not come in this year as fully as they did last year. Not sure why. Last year's drought maybe? Shown below is a photo from Memorial Day Weekend just last year.

Gorgeous summer day today; perfect start to Memorial Day Weekend.
Dale joined me for drinks.
Great day for a cigar and backyard jazz.
The Lilies of the Valley were beautifully pungent.
