A Good Visit

Neal and Carolyn have been visiting us the last few days. They headed back toward the Dallas area this morning. They were planning to spot at a local orchard and purchase some east Arkansas peaches before they left town.




On Tuesday we visited the gardens of two different friends. Joan and Ed have a wonderful shade garden with a very nice water feature.

I particularly like the hydrangea that are now blooming.





Joan and family have large garden that is filled with different blooming plants much of the spring, summer and fall.




Yesterday after lunch we all went to Memphis. Neal and I looked around in Davis Kidds book store while Carolyn helped Lynda do some shopping. Then, we headed over to Lauri and Jeff's for a visit with them.

We had a few minutes to kill before Lauri got home from work, so I thought it would be good to drive about in a nice residential area. Well, on the way I saw a sign for the farmers' market at Audubon Park. We decided decided to stop and see what they had to offer. We made a few purchases, then drove on to Lauri and Jeff's.

We had a short visit before we set out for the Barbecue Shop for dinner.

After dinner we went back to their home for dessert and coffee. Carolyn had requested Shaker Lemon Pie and I knew that Lauri also like it, so I had baked one. And of course I knew that it was one of Lynda's favorites, so it was a no-brainer choice as dessert for our special day.
