They really aren't. Especially when you are retired. I am so enjoying not having to go to work on these beautiful summer days.
I finally got a chance to cut the grass the other day and the yard is looking good again. I want to get out there a little later and do some reading.
In the meantime, I thought I'd show you how some of the things are looking. I didn't get a picture of the tomatoes and fairy garden again. I have to do some weeding before the fairies turn me in for being a slum lord. But here are some other shots for you to see.
My lilies.
Geraniums. So pretty.
My neighbor has day lilies. They are a lighter orange than mine are.
My hydrangea.
I took my shepherd's crook and hung little cages with tea lights in them. They are so pretty at night.
They are battery operated so there's no chance of a fire.
Looking good since the grass got cut.
Roses. So pretty.
The solar butterfly and impatiens. I thought they had died, but they are starting to come back.
I really love these little lights.
Some strange man came into the yard and sat down. He said his name was... Joe was it?
Such a pretty sunset on Friday. I love the gold in the clouds.
Hope you enjoyed the tour. Have a good day and try to get outside and enjoy this summer while it's here.

You've worked hard on your garden, and it's looking all ship-shape on this first day of summer.
