Wrapping up July

Well, when the temperatures dropped to the high and low 80's, we felt chilly!! This has been a mostly very hot July, but it has been cooling down pretty well at night, 60's and 70's. This is tolerable, but thank God I insisted on our three air conditioning units in 2007!! We have been home most of July, except our visit to the kids, doctors, dentists and Audrey and Corey's baby shower barbeque, which was very nice and great to see everyone on that side of the family! We harvested cherries, garlic and pretty soon the apricots will be ready. Watering and gardening in the early morning hours, then spending the rest of the day inside, doing projects, but mostly, getting myself lined up to finally get started on Dionne/Amya's scrapbook!! A pretty non-eventful July. Our new TV and Blue-Ray DVD is finally all hooked up and so I re-activated Netflix. Oh, what a pleasure to watch movies now. We usually watch a movie every night...what else do you do for entertainment around here. However, it is just a beautiful time of year and this year, I am more than pleased with the beauty of my garden. Back in August.

What a sunset

My Hollyhocks have a great view!

Hummers are a plenty as usual!

These beautiful orange butterflies love my Purple Cone Flowers
