Finally got to a good car (and aircraft) show this season --- Wings 'n Wheels at the Owen Sound Airport. Over 300 cars and dozens of classic propellers on a sunny day. Home sweet chrome! Pat's Best-In-Show was this pretty yellow '59 Ford wagon, imagined full of kids like her memories of Sunday drives. Mine was this full-fin '57 Plymouth Fury. Made in my hometown when cars reached for the sky.
Back home, something smelled! It was either this skunk that has been marking the turf (literally). Or the no-see-um bats. We know they're in their house because the droppings are obvious on the greenhouse. How many bats in this belfry??
It's been the best year yet for the gardens, and especially the raspberries. The wild ones spread along the old split rail fence and are blackish. The domestic variety planted around the deck is spreading through the stairs and the fruit is more typically red. Poppers!
But the big event this week was the passing of thyme. It was thyme to get some at the nursery. Then the thyme-keeper loosened up the thyme zone. Then it was thyme for layers of newspapers and compost. And during Daylight Savings Thyme, topsoil went down in no thyme.
I don't know what thyme it was, but 50 of them showed up. No thyme to waste as the holes were dug thyme-and-thyme again. For the umpteenth thyme, the gravel was raked so no thyme would be wasted. As thyme ran out, the job thymed out perfectly.
And we'll never be late because the Thyme Keeper is always checking the thyme! As you can tell, it's thyme for puns --- you got any more??
