This last weekend I was supposed to be up at Girl Scout camp with my troop. Unfortunately big L got sick and we were quarantined at home. Okay, not really quarantined, but the doctor said she had the flu and didn't want her around a lot of people.
I was feeling fine until Sunday so I used the opportunity to work outside. This kept me away from the germs a little more because even though she is big L she still likes to snuggle.

| This is my new cherry tree. We actually planted all the trees the weekend it was pouring. There are three or four varieties on the tree, so that it self-pollinates. It is also a low chill variety. |
 |
| The peach is on the left, cherry on the right. Bad pic! |
 |
| This is my apple tree. All the trees have multiple varieties grafted on so as to be self-pollinating. |
 |
| Proof that my flowers are still alive! |
 |
| In the corner, behind the cactus is my grapevine. I planted four, one at each post. Unfortunately, they had to be further away from the post because I found concrete about six inches below the topsoil along the tile. |
 |
| Imagine the grapevines growing up and over my gazebo. Shade will come eventually! |
 |
| This is my cute peach tree all by herself. |
It was a long day of hard work. I also cleaned up the front yard and re-potted some houseplants. I was beat, but it felt good to sit back and admire the work and imagine what it will be like as things grow.
