Indy 500 and Googly Eyes Gardeo

Remember the carpenter bee that was harassing me on the deck? Look where his lady nested: Right under Green Man's chin! That's pretty clever. Yesterday I saw sawdust falling from his beard.

Our peas are looking so cute. Their little arms are wrapped around their guiding sticks so tight.
Lavender is going to town.
The blossoms don't smell, but the
leaves are very fragrant. I thought it would be the other way around, but I'm pleased with this arrangement because the leaves last longer than the blossoms.







Irises are also still looking great.











On my way out to water the Impatiens tonight, I found these three outside of the square bed. I didn't plant them. They are another pleasant surprise. Tomorrow we are going to our first ever Indianapolis 500 race. We got free tickets and we're taking Matt's dad and uncle. None of us have ever been. We've been to the Kentucky Derby, but not to the 500, until now that is. They say there are 300,000 people expected and the race will be televised to more than 375 million homes. This should be fun. Wish us luck!
Since we won't be around tomorrow to show a gardeo, here's a link to a really funny one starring Christopher Walken on SNL. I tried to load it, but it keeps crashing blogger. It's worth following the link though, trust me. Happy Memorial Day weekend everyone!

Viagra is used in the treatment of Erectile Dysfunction (impotence), but it is not a cure. Impotence can be caused by a number of factors, either physical or psychological. Viagra can help maintain an erection but it will not stimulate arousal.
