Mid-July to mid-August

I have been lax in my postings. Lots of rain, busy with grandchildren, visitors, and other things. The gardens have benefitted from the rain this summer, and I have loved not having to drag hoses around all the time. The daylilies were spectacular with many still blooming, and the meadow is now full of goldenrod, phlox, bee balm and Queen Anne’s lace. Its a lazy time of year. I will move some things around this fall, but for now I am just enjoying the view.
