THE EVENING OF THE DAY (EARLY JULY GARDEN)

    Beautiful, Joey! Everything just glows in your garden at twilight.

    I find that evenings are the best time to enjoy the garden this time of year, too. I wilt under the heat of the sun:)

    Oh, Joey, it looks so utterly refreshing and cool! We are facing yet another day in the near 100's so your garden is particularly inviting today! Beautiful, as ever.

    Thank you, dear Tatyana. I love it too :)

    Thanks Esther and 'HAPPY BIRTHDAY'!

    Hi Tina and thank you. I love the shastas that treat me well.

    I hear you, Rose. Today was a wilting day in the garden. Twilight is good ... thank you.

    Thank you, dear Dee. Wishing you a relief from the heat. But your gardens look stunning!

    So I hear on the news, dear Kathryn. Do wish you lived near. How fun to relax beside you in 'the cool of evening'. Wishing you relief from the heat. Happy July :)

    Welcome Barb and thank you. How kind.

    Thank you, Karen. It was fun shooting! Had been away for almost a week ... so much had happened ... it's impossible to capture all.

    Thanks fun imac :)

    Thank you, Sweetbay. A small sampling of July goodies popping like fireworks.

    Delighted to hear from you, dear Kate. I'm honored by your visit. Thank you for the kind works, special friend.

    Agree, Eileen. I'm stunning on how fast time is flying. Thank you. Let's enjoy :)

    Dear Joey! I love these photos of the yellow lilies with the melding of blues and greens in the background. It's so cool and calm... and reminds me to rest and relax a little bit.
