On the Days You Think Your 9 to 5 Stinks....

just remember that there are worse jobs!
Cleaning/painting water towers just might be one of them. :)

My Sedum Autumn Joy has turned to a darker pink/burgundy color.

I like when they turn dark because all the bees leave.  Have you ever noticed that? When light pink there are 100's of bees in this area. Once they turn this color, I hardly see any bees.  Since this is the area where visitors walk up to my front door, I prefer no bees!

    Mine have turned dark pink also. No bees either now but it's getting cooler so I'm not seeing them out at all really. Have a nice weekend.

    I drove up to find a man taking photos of my Autumn Fire in the alley garden. I just waved but I think I frightened him as he turned quickly and started walking.

    Oh that 9-5 line is too funny. No way could I do that, I can't do heights!
    Have a great weekend.

    That's funny you should mention horrible jobs like that...we thought of some on a trip once-how about cleaning up roadkill? Scraping gum off the floor in the mall...you get the idea.
    I love the mauve color of the Autumn Joy. I am happy to see bees on it as they are said to be scarce.
