Yesterday in the late afternoon our rainy day cleared. While looking out at the garden I was thrilled to see a beautiful hawk perched on a garden post. I enjoyed watching him for a minute or two before he grew bored with our visit and with a few flaps took off into the woods. I hope he comes to call again soon...it would be amazing if he could share with me what it feels like to fly.
Today Autumn and I took some photos of the flowers that are in bloom. We enjoyed a nice time visiting the flowers and watching the birds around the gardens until she too grew tired of our mini adventure and took off for the much cooler house. Well that is how it goes....two nice visits I wish had lasted longer...hmmmmmm. It was 84 degrees today, so I'll assume it was really the heat and not the company that sent her on her way;);)

| We started outside the workshop and were greeted by a friendly face:) |
 |
| More happy flowers! |
 |
| Autumn works very hard taking care of these Marigolds! |
 |
| We stopped and said hello at the Chickadee residence |
 |
| Mock Orange---if you have never smelled these, you are missing out. They have this amazingly sweet and intense scent that my nose never tires of. |
 |
| Scotchbroom |
 |
| Peonies---another beautiful scent |
 |
| Miss Autumn's latest artwork |
 |
| These have been blooming every year faithfully for as long as I can remember |
 |
| And now, the Iris, which are particularly stunning this year--ENJOY! |
 |
| A Lily jumped in here, but she was too pretty to ignore |
 |
| My beautiful Autumn showing off the painted daisies, they are almost as pretty as her! |
 |
| So pretty |
 |
| Medeterranian?? Pinks |
 |
| We checked in on another patch of painted daisies |
 |
| Autumn tells me in no uncertain terms that she is hot and finished with my shenanigans!! She was in such a rush that she could not be bothered with the steps-- Off to the house for a popsicle! |
 |
| One last shot to end....the Blueberry bushes are making promises...I hope they keep them! |
