August Flowers

Crocosmia that the deer can't reach in the garden.
Stargazer lillies with a small white spider pal.

A few more tiles in place and a few more bricks smashed

A few more tiles have gone into the entry. 
A couple more work days and it will be ready for grouting.
HK on clean-up duty!

While HK was tiling, AO was smacking brick faces off.
