I have been out working in the yard planting flowers and the garden. The weather has been wonderful…until today!
It has turned off cold today and the weather forecast is saying to cover our tomatoes and tender plants!!!

He was my own personal chauffeur to quilt shops, malls, eating out and sight seeing!
