Weatherproofing, bean fence and the bridal wreath

A little rain to test out the newly stained and weatherproofed balcony! (completed yesterday, just before the night showers, phew). Looks like the weatherproofing is working. Make that almost completed, I still need a ladder or something to stand on to reach the middles section of the vertical end pieces. Or wait for it to dry, to reach through and around.

Some rain for the bean fence. Apparently the outdoor cats prefer organic soil as a kitty litter,  a few stakes laid horizontally, in hopes of diverting them.

New sunglasses to weatherproof her precious eyes. Sadly our favourite pair fell off in a quarry and were never to be found. These ones seem to work.

 The tulips blew away last week or perhaps a deer ate them, but now my favourite shrub, Bridal Wreath Spirea, has bloomed.
