It rained!! We had a half an inch in the rain gauge. It might have rained more than that..as the gauge was not sitting upright. We really needed some rain!
Chance and I had some quality time walking around the yard yesterday on my day off. Actually it was only part of a day off as I had to go to town to help get my car in for new tires and I had some things that I HAD to do at the Museum. So Chance and I volunteered at the museum…he watched while I unpacked books in a vault..he only ran off once to greet people..good thing they liked dogs.
The climbing roses are trying to climb.
Chance wasn’t far away..I think he was watching for wayward squirrels to herd.
The roses are part of the Canadian Explorer Series ‘William Baffin’:)
We finally got some rain too, along with high winds, the power is out!! Thank heavens for generators!!
ReplyDeleteI am so glad you got some rain. We are desperate
ReplyDeletefor for rain here.
I think Chance makes a wonderful greeter. :-)
Nice pink roses. And I can just see Chance taking on the duties of a greeter. You could always have some of our rain, if there was some way to distribute it equally. :-)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful. I kinda help mine. I tie the cane with tiny strips of old panty hose. Easy on the plant and blends in.
ReplyDeleteLove your roses. I wasn't much of a rose fan... but I'm becoming one. I love that they bloom all summer, and I love the variety of colors, sizes and types. We planted two roses in the past few weeks. We also had rain last night, not even a tenth of an inch... but we had more hail - luckily, from the sound of it, it was small.
ReplyDeleteLovely roses and what a great place for them to climb on.
ReplyDeleteWish I had room for climbing roses,Glad to see you and Chance are working together.LOL
ReplyDeleteWe are planning to put climbing roses by our arbour . Those are lovely roses I do like pink ! I would love to be greeted by Chance . Have a wonderful day !
ReplyDeleteWe'll send some of our rain your way. We have too much. some of the crop is now being drowned out.
ReplyDeleteOn the other hand our climbing roses are not yet blooming.
Oh, I'm so glad you finally got some rain! Supposed to be more here the next three days, so I will hope some of that makes it your way. The roses look like they appreciated the drink. ;)
ReplyDeleteThe roses are very pretty. And Chance is good to watch for those sneaky squirrels.
ReplyDeleteHope you all have a wonderful, blessed weekend!
It's a good thing you had to work on your day off...I hate when it rains on my day off! ;)
ReplyDeletePretty roses and I love the pic with Chance in the background. I hope Far Guy enjoy Father's Day weekend and that you two have a restful break.
ReplyDeleteJohn has shingles and is in a lot of pain. I had to get UGLY with ins./dr. to get scripts. It took ALL day but I got them.
Such gorgeous shots of the roses and Chance! We've had nothing but rain over here.
ReplyDeleteYou sound like you feel much better. Hooray for that. The roses are pretty. We got decent rainfall last week but this week's forecast is not promising for that.
ReplyDeleteMy William Baffin looks sad again this year. I am going to try to find a new place for some of the sprouts that are growing around it. I need to get something for it to climb on that is in the sun.
ReplyDeleteI want to get some climbers but haven't so far. I'm busy running around watering everything since it is so dry here. Nitty and Annie have been really diligent about the squirrels this year too. Are they more active than normal..the squirrels that is.
ReplyDeleteGlad you got the rain!
