Taking every possible opportunity to enjoy these long hot days of summer.
Even if it means being drenched by an occasional rain.
Seems it’s turned my blue bench into a reflecting pool.
Don’t you love the heady aroma of gathered greens ~
This heat though….
has brought with it a bit of tropical flare ~
Mornings are cool and fans move the heavy air.
The sun has arrived, along with the sound of cicadas and the occasional slap of the screen door.
Time to take shelter.
“ It’s the shelter of each other that the people live.” Irish proverb
Thank you Jamie Shelman for reminding us that Cats need shelter too!

Have a wonderful day friends and stay cool ~

Thoroughly enjoyed the picture tour.
Something deeply rewarding knowing the common & Latin names.

Time for a book of your beautiful photographs and yes, a bouquet of herbs - divine as can be! Happy weekend. XO
I'll do the common, Tara can do the Latin, and Barb, you can do the publishing. Sounds like a swell idea! Thanks for stopping by friends.

Hi Lisa, I haven't stopped by in awhile. Crazy busy here, decorating other people's homes in California. In a good way, thought. Love your lamb's ears, lavender, thyme, dusty miller. All my favorites. Have you been to Sissinghurst? I hear the white garden is amazing. Hugs dear girl, Shiree'
