Enlarged a bed along the rail fence by the road where I planted the Simplicity Roses this spring. Also set out variegated yucca by steps. Planted the 3 red phlopx & put tomato cages around them, put lawn weed barrier & mulched them. Bu 10:30 it was pretty hot – Bath & in to computer. Letter from Bob Harter asking for Michigan Lily bulbs so went down into woods & dug about 25 small ones & 1 blooming size.

Kensel Clutter called to tell me he stopped the Brush Hogs yesterday from mowing the Claridon Prairie clear to the tracks. They got all of the tall coreopsis at the east end. They said their instructions were to mow everything & they did along here just barely missing my clump of little blue stem across the road.
Worked on learning Ventura Publisher all afternoon. When I went out to get supper – No Water! I know I had turned it off since I took at bath. Found the lower hose disconnected & tied around a tree. The spigot open & water had run on driveway.
Window at Fairground will cost $565 – mine $195.
