I can do the fun part. The work part to keep it going, is probably beyond me. I guess it is a choice of priorities. I spend more time on here than gardening, and right now, cutting grass and doing summer chores. So the nice garden is a dream. We DO put in a food garden, so that is gardening, but more for eating. I gotta get on that soon. The weather hasn't been helping much. Do you put in a garden? Probably not, as you've been in school. And THAT takes even MORE time. Can't say as I miss it much....then again, I wasn't exactly a model student.
That patio festival sounds grand. I would love to see that. So many places to relax and hang out and they would be, no doubt, beautiful. I love a patio all lit up with light strings or candles. I have a bunch of hanging candles I put out in the yard when entertaining. When it happens, which is seldom, but it's fun.
Have a nice weekend, hope the weather is improving.
