Ah, Summer

Since I often post photos of blizzards, I think I should give equal time to my favorite time of year.

I took these photos in my friend Jill's garden.  

Depending on which report one reads, we have received between five and ten inches of rain in the past few days.  Good for the flowers, but I have to keep emptying the water that collects in the dishes under the pots in my own "porch garden."  I'll post some photos of those plants soon.

Yes, that is an old sewing machine.  No, my friend doesn't sew very often.
