Sunset
Tonight we were treated to a beautiful sunset, after the storm 🤩🌞
Replacing the small hedge
The boxwood hedge bordering the small gravel parking lot succumbed to the box tree moth attacks. So it had to be replaced with something new and pretty. I put in a small fence and four standing willows. I think it looks good. I hope you like it too. We'll add a few more flowers to brighten up the flowerbed.
