Aren't they beautiful. I don't think there is anything more pleasing to the eye than flowers. Everyone can look at them just driving in your car. I always try to notice the many different colors and how they have arranged them in their own yard. It gives me ideas. Notice on what side of the house they are growing etc. I want to get me Hydrangias. The large blue flowers are so pretty. From what I understand it has to do with acid in the soil. I do want the blue ones but I also want the pink ones. I have noticed they seem to always be on the north side of the houses. The plant looks very healthy so that is where I should put mine but I really don't have room there so I think I will put it on the south side of my yard under the walnut and oak trees. It's shady there most of the day. I did have around my little pond that were all white. It was called the Moon Garden as when the Moon is full it shines on the white flowers and makes them glow. It was really pretty. Must do that again. I'm not going to use the pond but I bet I could just make a small patch. Our Granddaughter gave us a box of wild flowers several years ago and believe it or not every spring they still come up. I thank her so much for that as we love them and told her that is a gift that keeps on giving. Ha!
Oh my, is not this weather unbearable. We have been getting in the 100's. I do say, enough all ready. I do not like this. I mush prefer the cooler air especially in the 70's with a nice little breeze. I know what you are thinking......I need to move. Ha! Well, it's not in the cards right now. I do have somewhat of an answer......we have purchased a pool. That's right, it's 15ft. around and 4ft deep and fits our purpose. I do go in the morning but when it's this hot I will not be in the sun so i wait until 7:00pm and it's in the shade. We bought it at the store we all love to hate (walmart) . Hey, it was on sale and I really really was hot. As always, stay healthy and enjoy the food. Tootles
