Flowers And Tree Stumps

Markings are for utility lines so they don't get cut during stump removal.  The stumps go and the glorious flowers stay!  The cosmos are from my FIL; thanks Bob!

Garden and Stuff

 Someone is nibbling!

 
 I'm collecting lots of Cosmos seeds.

 
 I'm letting new starts grow eventho I know they won't have a chance to mature before a freeze.

 Jeff's tomatoes are plentiful.

 A trip to the big house in Centennial brought stuff from Bob's shed, including a tape measure for me!!
