Het Gazebo is ready for Summer !

After a very wet Spring May ended warm and sunny !
 But that didn't stop the weeds !
Here you see how the volunteers get the weeding done !
Het Gazebo looks ready for June and Summer visitors!

Art as well as a great piece of engineering !

Monomet at Het Gazebo in Diepenheim !
Let's take a closer look !
Climb the stairs for a great view !
It's also time for Monumet to have an annual check up ! 
The base slides forward over the hostas !
All pieces are still aligned and working !
The hostas have room enough !
All the hatches and pumps can now be checked !
It is a big practical trasferable sculpture !
It's almost June ! The best time for hostas !
Lots of colour and sizes !
Looking good !
Het Gazebo Monomet is free to visit anytime !

All of a sudden they grew !

Hostas are sure growing and enjoying
the wettest Spring they've seen ! 
The weeds as well! 
Thanks to the volunteers maintaining Het Gazebo,
keeping it weed free,
so we can walk the paths that represent the veins !

The visitors are back !

It's the second week of the two week May vacation in The Netherlands !
It was a pleasant surprise for  the cycling tourists 
that stopped by at Het Gazebo when they climbed the look out!
A frosty night quickly warmed to 16 C today !
The hostas are getting bigger by the day !

More than 6 mm rain !

A very wet Wednesday morning indeed 
at Het Gazebo in Diepenheim !
So, the volunteers checked the terrain.
See how fast the hostas are growing !
Decided it was just too wet,
to warm up, dry out and enjoy coffee !
