So many outdoor projects have been neglected!! Neighbors have returned from a one-month motorhome trip; time to return Shirley’s ladder. In an effort to prevent theft of the ladder (again) I added her name for identification. Likewise, my name on my recently acquired (from a yard sale) ladder.

I followed directions and chose to spray (with Fels-Naptha) the wasp nest first thing this morning (or late evening recommended). No wasps in the new trap. ~~ Then I started the project inserting screen on the vent door. I’ll complete… in the comfort of my air-conditioned home.

Postscript, same day, 2:30 PM: This crazy old lady gardener made a special trip to Livingston for a short piece of plastic tubing. She’s eager to get the fountain going!! Home again and picture taken to document the heat and humidity. Last picture illustrates “faux pas.”
