Planting at Riggle Park

The park kitty corner from my house - Riggle Park- just got a brand new sign provided by the city. The garden club is in charge of planting flowers and shrubs around the sign. The city provides the materials we provide the labor. We had a potluck cook out at my house afterwards. Caelun was sleeping until the end of the cook out so he missed out on the fun, but at least he woke up in time to eat all of the yummy food.

Planting the city planters

"I don't garden because I like to. I am an old southern woman. We are supposed to wear old funny hats and grow vegetables in the dirt. Don't ask me why- I don't make the rules." Steel Magnolias.
We did so much already over this long weekend that it will take several posts and several days to catch up. Saturday morning Abby and I went and planted flowers in the city planters with The Garden Club. The planters will be moved to line main street. We had to hurry home to make lunch for my parents coming over.
