Late

 Autumn's changing colors are a bit late.  The weather has been so warm for this time of the year.

The white phlox are still blooming...

bachelor buttons too...

and morning glories as well.

 Yes there are some spots of color but October's usual array of hues is late.

Perhaps winter will be the same.  That would not make me sad!!

Hope everyone has a lovely week.

July's Finish

Well sweet friends this week marks July's finish.

This month has brought us breathtaking sunsets...











delightful daylilies

fragrant phlox...

abundant squash and zucchini... 

plenty of green beans to snap...

and delicious Lodi apples for sauce and baking.

As July winds down and makes its final finish this week - hoping that all of you are enjoying a lovely end of the month.

See you in August - God willing.


Hugs

Long Time

Sunday Sketches

  It may seem like a long time since I last saw the hummingbirds and yellow finches.


















 Or spotted a patch of wildflowers

or looked up at such a soft blue sky...

or caught site of a butterfly...




















or seen hills shrouded in the morning mist.

In reality it hasn't been so long.  It just seems so.


When one is waiting time seems to slumber.

May all of you have a blessed week!

Hugs Debbie

While Absent

Look what happened while absent.

 July stumbled into August!

Sunflowers and phlox showed up in the garden...

 beans were put up for winter...

 a  local car show took place...

An old cemetery was discovered.

a bit of tangling went on...

 and a few tomatoes started to ripen.

Most importantly I missed You!    So glad to be back.    Have a blessed day.
