No training

The day got away from me yesterday.  I didnt train but it wasnt like I didnt do anything.  The little guy and I cleaned up the back patio and front yard in preparation for company and cocktails.
Given the heat and the sun in the back yard I have reconfirmed that I will not be expending large sums of money for patio furniture.  Everything fades.  And it weathers quickly.  And in the middle of the summer it is just too hot to sit out there.  So I am sticking with the multi-colored adirondack chairs.
As for the front yard....  Well the oleander look to have survived being in the ground for the winter.  I am slowly removing all the dead leaves from each of them.  There is lots of new growth on the branches.  AND I have a new little oleander popping out of the ground.  Sadly it is right near the brick wall so I am not sure if it will survive.  The lantana and the gladiolos are doing wonderful.  And the dahlias are coming back...  Now just to see what else went to seed and pops up.  I will address that when the other travel is done.
Today headed to a friends house for breakfast in just a few minutes.  Hoping to not be so stuffed when I leave there.  May get some sort of run or ride in there.
