Fact: Nectarines differ from peaches in that they don’t have fuzzy skins. You can graft peach branches onto a nectarine tree, or nectarine branches onto a peach tree, so you can have both types of fruit.

A day to relax doesn’t come very often, but today is one of those days.  We have nothing planned until dinner and dancing tonight!  So, what do we do? We headed for the garden! As I walked over to her, Mary asked, “What do you call an everyday potato? ”  Then it came, “A commen-tater.”

I had to have a comeback, so I said, “Thank goodness spring is finally here! The trees are re-leaved.”

The weeds do not have a chance!

While  Mary was digging, I was cutting the old wooden closet doors down the center so I could take them upstairs and into the attic; I will be able to walk around without having to step on the ceiling joists!

I chopped our closet doors into 15-inch-wide pieces that I’m going to use in the attic to walk on.

We had ten doors and I can make twenty-six individual planks! The doors are “hollow-core” (honeycomb)  but they are very strong.

I’ll probably have more wooden planks than I need by the time everything is cut.

The weather was fantastic today, so I decided to join Mary in the yard.  I did a lot of watering today!

A beautiful day!

The flowers are going wild,d and the tulips are beginning to show their heads.

A field of yellow blossoms.

At 4:00 PM, we headed out to dance, but first we stopped at Jan’s for a glass of wine and to drop off some foodies.   We were in luck this afternoon, we parked by the front door.

We arrived just as the sun was going down!

Bob and Donna joined us in the bar area where we had a wonderful dinner.  Jacob was our waiter, and he did a super job.

PF Changs, they know us there!

We have been friends with Donna and Bob for almost two decades, so we enjoy each other’s company.  Donna was telling us she might need glasses.  She even gave us a demonstration.

“I need glasses”

7:05 PM, and we are at the dance! We danced for three hours, and it was great;  Neither of us had any pain after we departed.

Dance baby dance

We made it home by 9:45 PM and crashed.

 Good Night
