When there is a drought one has to find what is available. It happens that the moss rose is doing well so here you have another orange number. Things are pretty pathetic in the overall view so the macros cover up the problems in the garden. Our little one fourth inch rain added some more moisture but there will be no rescuing anything that has already died back.
Another orange shot are these two tomatoes hiding behind the yellowing leaves. I received a bag of tomatoes from a friend that lives a few blocks away from me. The spent a lot of money on water and planted very early in the season so they had decent sized tomatoes.
My final finish for the day is my front porch planter. These petunias have done well on the north side of the house in the shade.
We are headed to Osceola today to meet with my older brother Ron and his wife Julie. She wanted to come back from Arizona and see her father who is in poor health. It will be good to see them and we are eating out at the Lakeside Casino. That means eating huge amounts of many kinds of foods as there is a great variety in which to choose.
We always have a good time with Ron and Julie and we spend a lot of time talking and laughing. My brother is a whoot and likes to tease. He also likes to make fun of himself and laugh at old age.
Thanks for stopping by my post today.

Beautiful photos. So happy that you guys will get together later today. That sounds like a great way to spend a Saturday - laughing, eating, and catching up.
Have a good visit! Enjoy your day off! :)
I love moss roses- just about the only flower I can grow!
