Plants ordered

Today, for the first time in 54 years, I ordered the garden plants online. Usually Ed and I would visit the nursery and pick out our plants and have done that for 54 summers, we will be married 55 years in September. It was a yearly ritual that was rather fun and started out very small in terms of plants and now has returned once again to that somewhat smaller order although much larger than our very first order. The girls joined us and through the years we all journeyed together to pick out plants. Then they grew up and went their own ways and we returned to going to pick out our plants on our own once again. It is an interesting cycle; the cycle of two and then more and then two again.

COVID-19 still with us and the numbers continue to climb 4,635,830 cases globally (increase of 100,878 over yesterday), 311,821 deaths (increase of 4,713 over yesterday) and 1,693,685 recovered (increase of 60,500 over yesterday). In Canada 75,864 cases (increase of 1,251 over yesterday), 5,679 deaths (increase of 117 over yesterday), and 37,819 recovered (increase of 924 over yesterday).
