Hi Everyone!!!!!

This is our new patio cover after IKE took down the old canopy down last year. This one is supposed to make it thru a hurricane (cat 1-3). It is structural steel. It provides great shade and does not leak. We had plenty of rain this weekend to test it!

The wind has played havoc with the hut. It could use some help.

We put up another Intex pool for the grandchildren this weekend. It's great to sit in and cool off in the hot summer.

The pond is being filtered and then we will reinstall the pump for the little waterfall. We'll have to trim out some of the growth so it can be seen.

Several of our hibiscus, and angel trumpets are in bloom, and my variagated ginger bloomed. It is a shell ginger. I am so happy! Can't wait for the other ginger to bloom!

Several of the daylilies are in bloom. I've been crossing them. There are 25 seed pods if they all hold. "ALOHA Y'ALL"
