Thank you, he's beautiful and hopefully fast enough to stay away from his brother!

He was! He is a Ancona Indian Runner mix.

I was surprised at how many different breeds I read the Runner helped in creating.

Yeah, like the Kiki Campbell.

Yeah, like the Kiki Campbell.

And the buff Orpington I believe.

And the buff Orpington I believe.

I did not know that. Do you believe the Mallard helped make most of the duck breeds today?

I think I read that all but Muscovy are related to mallards.

Finished the walkway, transplanted the sage and built a temporary wall around it. I’m going to pick up some blocks that match the pavers tomorrow after work to replace it. Moved the pool to where I think I want it permanently. I noticed the lemon tree is blooming and so are these Australian things that get red flowers. I gave one of the yellow bells a major trim today, it was a bit leggy. Hubs figured out that our cart/dolly was the perfect height to roll along the garden and hold the wire while he attached it to the frame. Add his air powered stapler and he was moving right along. Tomorrow he’ll build the gate, attach and it’ll be done. We’ve had the house open most of the day and it was comfortable enough for a tank top and capris this afternoon. Time to put the ducks to bed and have a shower. Oh and I transplanted the society garlic that was in a pot between the logs along the path

Looks great IM! I'm going to steal the dolly idea...genius...could have used that last year when we were building the free range pen!

Love the mugging shot...

That's looking amazing and I agree with Rene, the dolly idea is a keeper. I see someone really likes the camera

Your garden area is shaping up great! Don't you love the scent from the lemon tree blossoms? We had a couple when we were in FL, best smelling 'perfume' of all

Looks like the ducks did a good job supervising all the hard work!
