Friday night dinner at Damien's and Guys and Dolls with Mom and Dad. Saturday morning Bert and I drove separately to the farm so I could drive in to work on Monday morning.
- As soon as I arrived I made a pie, baked some cookies, put some beans on to soak, and marinated a brisket.
- I watched Netflix until about 1:00 and Bert mowed the whole place.
- We went to Ray and Deborah's house for her retirement party. Jeff and Amy came over late in the day. We had dinner and talked late into the evening.
- Sunday. Vacuumed, mopped. Cleaned the bathrooms. Cooked the beans, made a fruit salad and coleslaw. The brisket was in the oven all night.
- Mom, Dad, Nan, Will and Kim and family and Nathan and Jess and family cam over. We ate and swam. Fun day.
- Watered in the Rose Garden. Really dry. I lost my Graham Thomas rose. It was just hanging on, so not a complete surprise. I was a little surprised though. I will replace it with something new in the fall. I always thought Graham Thomas was a stingy bloomer. But it's a yellow rose, so I valued it for the color. I won't re-plant it. I'll find something new.
- I cut the tops off of all my Mexican Sunflowers in the Vegetable Garden, hopefully to make them stronger and more branched. There's also an amaranth out there, and I cut the top off it as well.
