At the James house. Hubby had ordered wiper blades for my truck. They got here first. Then I got my pond light. Finally I got my canopy. Had it together and then had to lower it because of a high wind thunderstorm. I will try to set it back up tomorrow and take pictures. I am thinking I won't put the top all the way on so we can remove it easily. I did get the stretch of fence line cleaned out that I wanted to. I have moved some of my gladiolus pots up by it. I will work on the inside area tomorrow. After I mess with the canopy. Now that the storm seems to have passed I need to lock the chickens up and check my last camera outside. Hope you had a good day.

I am glad you received your canopy. I hope you can set it up today. My day was good, grocery done for a full week.

I had too much "fun" today. I'm really tired now and need to go back to sleep. I hope you have a good night.

@wolfgirl569 I slept after the workmen left at 4 pm until Pretty woke me up at 7:30 pm to sign her worksheet and then went back to sleep around 9 pm and woke up at 2:30 am. I feel tired again. After we got to Walmart and did our shopping, we had to go to the front desk and pick up our new gas mower and bring it home. We carried it to the front porch and left it for now. It's 90F with 100% humidity. It's too hot to put it together and mow right now. At least we have it and can catch up on the mowing between the rains.

Canopies are really hard to handle in windy Oklahoma.

You two are moving and shaking things up. In just a little bit hubby and I and it looks like Rufus are going to a poetry reading. Moxe is going to Gardening Buddy for a sleepover. Buddy would take Moxe for keeps in a heartbeat.

Sounds like a good evening for you. Patch border collie and Jill doberman had a big fight yesterday. For now it seems to be settled.

Can I ask how you will secure the canopy to the ground Do you use ropes like a tent has?

That's it. But I will tie part of it to fence panels and part to rock filled buckets.

@wolfgirl569 That should make it very secure. I think the fence is a good idea I hadn't thought of using the fence at all But I will now

That's the trouble with canopies. They don't like strong winds.
