Fridays Question- That Early Spring Feeling

We have been enjoying this warmer weather , one more day of it here. Then the cold returns and maybe some snow. I have a little feeling of Spring fever. You know the kind , When I want to get out and work those garden plots. Last year I was not able to do it, Due to a Broken Arm. Today I will get out there and work my new herb garden. Looking forward to that garden. I have a great big area that needs to be revamped.

That got me thinking, Are you starting or working on a garden? If not, what would you love to see in My garden?

My Favorite Song Weekend- Fireworks with Music

While at Longwood Gardens last weekend we took in the Fountain and Fireworks display. This was a first time we attended this program. We loved it so much. Even my teen loved it. I remember as a kid watching fireworks displayed to the Boston Pops or Philharmonic Symphony Orchestras playing. Those were great memories of my childhood. I would say this rates right up there with new great memories. Next year I will diffidently have to take my Dad to this event.

Longwood Gardens is in Pennsylvania and is one of the largest working Fountain gardens in the USA. It's grounds cover 1,050 acres and is one of the Premiere botanical garden in the United States. I enjoy the Fountains throughout the park. Some of them are run with a music theme playing. The fountains dance as if a dancer is on the stage performing to the music. Then there are the one that are just running. Reminds me of European fountains Visited.

If you have never been to Longwood Gardens, you should put it on your list of things to do. I guarantee you will love it.

Monday News- Holiday and an Anniversary

Friday was are wedding anniversary. I met my Hubby about 34 years ago while serving in the Military. We were stationed together in Colorado. However we got married near Pittsburgh 33 years ago. My father was ministering a church there and I really lucked out because hubby's family lived by Erie. So they all were able to attend. This year My daughter arranged a sleep over for her at a friends house. That gave hubby and I the whole house to our selves. I cooked he favorite meal, Steak, Mushrooms in herb butter sauce and Artichokes. He loves Banana Cream Pie. Daughter and I went to the Amish Market a got a fresh baked one for him. It was a personal one just for him. He so enjoyed it. We had a great time just staying in and laughing about old times.

Saturday I spent the day working in the yard and computing some. The pool needed to be cleaned out and the filter changed. I am getting it ready for the fall swim season. Here we have about 4 to5 more weeks of pool enjoyment after summer ends. We are still having some 90 degree weather so I do not have to hook up the Pools solar heater yet. I did some washing and packing for our Sunday trip.

Our Sunday trip was to Longwood Gardens in Kennett square, Pennsylvania. This year we were taking in the Fountains and Fireworks display. Oh Do I have Photos and Videos. They were just fantastic, I love it when fireworks are done to music. I will be blogging about this here and on my garden site later this week. be looking for Blue Monday, Ruby Tuesday, Wednesday as well as some other special post. We all love going to this Garden, there is always something different going on. This year it was "Making scents: The art and passion of fragrance". Oh all the memories that flooded back! It was true great.

Today we are still in Pennsylvania and will be making our way home visiting some places along the way. Here we are celebrating Labor Day so we have a long weekend.
How was your weekend?
