The Gardener Has Returned...

                            
                While I was gone...

the fledglings flew
(Sigh... so sorry I missed that)

the weeds... how they grew!
(Got my Saturday's work lined up)

and my flowers struggle in the heat.

Oh-h-h, 
but we had such a wonderful time away!

Dancin' in the Summer Night!

  1. Beautiful dancing children. And I love your reporting on the chicadee family below. Maybe next year you'll see the babies. If you set out a feeder, perhaps they'll partake?

  2. Welcome back! I'm glad you had a refreshing vacation, Carolyn. Gorgeous photos!

    Maybe, unbeknownst to you, those fledglings will come and visit you in the garden sometimes. :)

  5. We think our chickadees return, year after year. It could be different ones, but we like to think it's our family. I got to see the wren babies fledge this year though - wonderful!
    Thanks for the post!

  7. Love the dancin' sunset. Way to impress me on my first visit. I have to attempt the effect myself. Thanks for the example.

    There was no need to challenge me. I always visit those that leave a comment. It takes more than common courtesy to make me comment though :)

  9. Hi Meredehuit,
    Thanks for the nice comment on my Bloomin' Tuesday post. I planted four o' clocks because I remember my mom growing them in the narrow patch of dirt by our back door when I was a girl. Yes, you need to plant some too, and then they will keep planting themselves.

    Are those your grandchildren in that awesome photo? I love both of your photos, but the one with the children is my favorite.
