The crew has not returned from their morning walk in Mundy, on the Bush trails deep in the woods. They got caught by rain!  I spoke to my dad this morning: their propety is a huge land filled with flowers and stones and fountains...it is truly ravishing. At 80 something, they still garden like mad. Beautiful house gardens. They are having friends over for lunch today. They keep super busy, mostly with shopping and gardening and medical appointments. Long life, dear parents!

UPDATE

Everyone is back and eating breakfast. I don't know if we will go to Home Depot to buy the three plants or not (rhododendron, fern and tree with red and green leaves). Today or this week end anyway, we will go. I may forego the tree at 45$ and just buy two rhododendrons at 15$ each. We are low on money. Just got a property taxes bill for 3K which we will need to use the savings to pay.
