Lily of the valley blooms are hard for me to get decent photos of.<br /><br />You asked me if I ride with my husband on his motorcycle. I wasn't really wanting him to get it, and told him I would not be riding on it. Plus, I don't like wind blowing on me. It's an old Honda (I think) 390. I broke down and told him I'd be willing to ride short distances, but he said he's not confident enough of a driver yet to have a passenger.<br /><br />Right now, he's out looking at larger motorcycles. He has some money from retirement that he's determined to spend on one. (He knew when he retired it was really a job change, so he is working at a different job now.) Again, I'm not happy about him wanting another motorcycle. We have very little saved for retirement. Also, I thought he should be satisfied with the other one, but he says he's not mechanical to have that old of a motorcycle. There are a number of people who are interested in buying the one he has, but I wonder how much they think it's worth.<br /><br />Well, that was a long winded answer! Do you ride with your husband?Corner Gardener Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10631500918579405664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5402966891549129524.post-77274212090788138092011-06-13T08:54:22.147-05:002011-06-13T08:54:22.147-05:00Hi Diane, I love the little verse, which I have ne...Hi Diane, I love the little verse, which I have never heard before.

Thank you for visiting my 'lasagna garden' and commenting TWICE. In answer to your question, I mulched with mushroom compost this year. I may add cedar bark, later.
