After much huffing and puffing, a little man strength from Jamie and a trip into town for some penetrating oil, Ed has been revived. The new belt works like a charm, and I even know how to take the whole mowing deck off now. Just in time for the weekly mowing – although I don’t think the whole lawn needs it this week.
I am also going to share some photos of pretty things because it is Sunday, and I say so.
If you know the name of any of these things and want to share leave a message in the comments.

The splendid peony that is the largest and prettiest of many…
