5pm and 56°

It sure does not seem like mid July, but I don't mind. It's sprinkling just a bit and I am hopeful that we will get more rain tonight.

The sunless day makes for some good picture taking so I went out and a snapped a few. I am glad that I moved this big piece of driftwood because I enjoy it much more in the arbor gardens than I did further back in the woodland.
The white trumpet lilies burst into bloom while I was at work today. I think they are bigger than usual this year.

We are staying home this weekend and I am not sure what I will do. There is an craft show down at the boat harbor, so I may go there tomorrow. The library just called with another book so I will pick that up and do some reading as well as some gardening.

Isn't this the cutest McDonald Christmas ornie? The little bear is sitting in a bag fries--too cute!

A long time ago I mentioned that my husband collects McD's items. Dianne, from Diane Rambling On, remembered that and she sent him this. I thought that was so thoughtful of her! She is such a kind, thoughtful person . Thank you again, Dianne. We will think of you everytime we use it to decorate for Christmas.

Right now I am going to have this colorful salad for dinner.

It's a meatless meal tonight because I don't feel like cooking. DH has leftover pizza, but I will just have a salad and some chili fritoes with cream cheese :). These fresh sweet cherries make a nice addition to my salad and the poppy seed bottled dressing is the perfect complement.

What will you all be doing this weekend?
