wednesday morning in the garden

Posted on May 12, 2017 by thirdstoryies

Garden 2

I almost combined these with last Saturday’s garden photos but decided not to, and now it’s less than twelve hours before I head over there again. So I’m just going to turn over this blog to the flowers for a bit. I mentioned a few days ago that I got a new camera, and I’m using my garden walks to try it out. The results aren’t always perfect, but it’s fun to play.

She’s still rock hopping in the woodlands. One day we’ll probably be reprimanded for doing it, but she’s careful not to disturb anything as she wanders. Occasionally she gets a bit worried about how she’ll get back – on the way out, the rocks look closer together than they do on the way back!

The lilies are coming – we saw the first signs of them on Wednesday. That seems too soon, but May keeps moving along and the garden is always good at keeping up.
