had a very relaxing day…

slept in a bit… for me, lol… put out the cushions, watered the garden and had breakfast by the pond…

enjoyed all the flowers on the mandevilla and spent time with my book…

while I was reading, I looked up to see this…

the little bunny that I’ve spotted a number of times, but not been able to get a picture of… today it sat by the chair and enjoyed some greens while I took pictures…

when it got too hot to stay outside I came into the house and watched sports on tv and napped…

so sluggish that I ordered my groceries to be delivered tomorrow… really the height of laziness…

woke up at 6 to pouring rain… by 8 it was done and the sun came out, although it was windy… we spent the day on the water…

early morning water drops on the boat…

throughout the day we spotted many geese, a pileated woodpecker, two deer and a fawn, an eagle, maybe an American Three-Toed woodpecker, and one very large Jack fish which my son-in-law caught…

bacon, eggs and hash browns for breakfast and steak, baked potatoes and onions, with mushrooms for dinner… pretty fine eats;-)…

cool temperature-wise but a great day;-)…

the flowers were at the dock… the moss covered tree is at the campsite…

started my day in the hot tub… rather quiet as the waterfall is turned off while awaiting repair, lol…

walked to the grocery store; consulted with Hilda the Gardener, who then did some amazing clean-up in the side garden and tidied the main garden; and packed up all my stuff for another few days of camping…

ended the day watching boys jump into the lake from a rather tall rock, which we climbed, and now we sit by the campfire…

did manage to get one flower picture as well;-)…

been a full day… think it might be an early night…

had a great few minutes this morning in the garden… checked out the flowers and watched for birds… lots of flowers, no birds…

as I waited for my ride, at least three squirrels fought over the feeder in the front yard…

I cannot explain how much I love spending time enjoying nature…

I miss being able to share this love with my beloved…

started my day at 5:15 and got this photo of the sunrise… it really shows the colour perfectly… within an hour it was overcast… lucky to have been up to see it…

a bit later I went out to take a photo of the hibiscus… it suffered greatly when it moved outside and finally has some flowers starting… and while I was there the purple finch popped over to the feeder;-)…

nearly late for my ride because I didn’t want to stop watching the finch flit to and from the feeder…

Wednesday our CSA box portions arrive… we’ve divided it into four portions which is working perfectly…

tonight I made a smoothie with the strawberries and plan on eating the peas and carrots tomorrow… and the purple pepper is gorgeous;-)…

another great day…

ride…

as I was waiting for my ride this morning there was a huge thunderstorm and the power went out…

I was in the middle of taking a few pics of the violet that was just starting to open…

at the office I also took some photos of the violet there that is open… and of my orchid…

great start to my time back at the office;-)…

the rain is gently falling now… which is wonderful because it has been very dry for weeks…

but this morning it was lovely out and I spent some quality time in the garden taking pictures of flowers…

spending time in the garden is rejuvenating for me… there is something so serene and peaceful in this space…

it reminds me of so many wonderful activities we’ve celebrated in this space…

here are a few pictures from this morning… I hope you enjoy seeing them, as much as I did taking them…

had a spur-of-the-moment walk and breakfast with a friend…

she texted me early to see if I wanted to go for a wander through the English and Leo Mol Gardens… of course I did;-)…

threw on my clothes, walked over and met her at the Park…

we had a lovely visit as we circled the Gardens being careful not to get sprinkled on as many sections and paths were getting misted, lol…

from there we moved over to the Park Cafe for a great breakfast…

and then we enjoyed a little retail therapy…

lovely treat to start the day…
