Best Husband on the Planet

Installation Day.  June 4, 2016 — Installation Day. June 4, 2016

Today was the day, folks! Aaron installed a drip irrigation system in our garden. He worked his ass off. Designed a genius pattern. Dug trenches. Toiled in the 100 degree weather. Sweated and cried. My hero!!! I've been begging for a drip system and today it happened!

You can see many flowers in the background: hollyhocks, calendula. The daisies are growing exponentially every minute of every day. I wonder if they will bloom before we hit the road. I hope so, I love them.

The strawberries are blooming. The sunflowers are hip high. Every day I go outside, it is so exciting! I planted dahlia bulbs for the first time and they are growing! Of course I have pineapple sage - they are still small, but they will be tremendous in the fall. Pineapple sage is my favorite plant. This year we planted a purple smokebush.

And now, we have an irrigation system! Thanks to the best husband, ever.
