Lavender

The Lavender fields by Mona are so pretty right now, I figured I better get some pictures as we were driving by, before they harvest.
I don't know how these fields smell (and I didn't want to roll down my window and risk waking kids up) but I love how lavender used to smell in my yard.
I would imagine a field of it might be somewhat overwhelming. ☺
I am looking forward to having a yard to be able to plant stuff again though.
Speaking of...
Cary and I were over at "our house" yesterday morning. He was under the house trying to figure stuff out and I was wandering around the yard figuring out where we want the patio, try to visualise where the shed is going to go, which trees are going to have to be cut down, ya da, ya da.
Unfortunately, there is a lot of stuff that has to be done before I CAN plant anything.
It felt like we didn't get a lot done on the house this weekend as far as contruction and physical work.
(when I say "we" in reference to physical labor, I'm not included!) ☺
We (I did help with that) did figure out measurements for the doors, windows, etc...
Lots to do, lots to do.
It would sure be nice if we had more than just weekends to work on it.
Kenneth is making lots of progress on his house, which is exciting to see!

I love Lavender! It smells so good. It will be fun to see what you plant once you get situated in your new home.
