I had a doctor's appointment Friday morning and a hair appointment in the evening so I went ahead and took the whole day off as a vacation day (or Paid Time Off) as it's referred to now.
Since the weather was pretty nice, I took the opportunity, between appointments, to clean out the veggie garden.
We were going to plant the vegetables this weekend, but the weather man is calling for a chance of frost so we'll wait until later next week do do that.
Last year I had a water feature in the center of the garden. It was a whiskey barrel with a plastic insert. I added water plants and a solar-powered fountain.
It turned out to be a real hassle. The plants kept floating to the top and it turned into a mosquito breading tank.
This year I turned the whiskey barrel into a planter. It has a bag of mulch in the bottom so it's not too heavy and I added some salvia and purple wave petunias.
