After the Rain



Thunder rolled in the distance, some lightning flashed and a gentle rain fell for a short time. Precious raindrops last evening making the garden inviting this morning. Camera time instead of having to water with the sprinklers and hoses. With cooler nights creeping closer the trees will soon start to turn. These lovely greens will change and fade into Autumn's golden shades.




A gentle Sunday morning garden. Humidity has been literally breath taking these past few days. Today should be the last unbearable one..........a perfect day forecast for tomorrow's holiday. Enjoy the fruits of your labor on the holiday.

  1. Hi Mary:
    Glad you got some rain. Next weekend, we are going to Myrtle Beach for three nights and meeting Jason, Mandie and Zoe there. It is supposed to thunderstorm two of the days. Figures. Oh well, we are going anyway. Enjoy your rain.

  4. I'll say it again....you have THEE prettiest garden. Love that glass ball too.
    So glad you got the much-needed rain and I like to hear cooler nights are on the way. I will say here on the island I'm noticing a bit of a change early morning and late evening. Bearable!
    I've had so much fun catching up with you here, Mary. And can you believe, I leave for France FOUR weeks from tomorrow night! I'm ready! Can't wait to meet you over there. Talk to you soon.

  5. I'm so happy with that rain... but the humidity like you said breath taking. Ryan, Luna and I stopped by Suzanna's yesterday and we told Suzie you said hello. Let see if we can get together sometime this week. Hugs!! Vanessa
