Excitement at the Lake

I hadn’t been to the lake all summer and really wanted a swim. So I arranged the day and we set off. There were hobbits there, to my surprise.

The weather was supposed to be sunny with light clouds, but it was soon heavily clouded and a loud rumble began. I thought it was a big truck going up the road behind the lake, but it continued, getting louder. Soon it was right above us, heavy thunder. As it got louder, we looked around wondering where the lightening would appear.

Then it dumped rain, huge pellets of water as we scrambled for our things and ran for the car. By the time we got there and loaded our stuff, we were soaking wet. Not your usual trip to the lake for a swim.

What did you do to bid farewell to the summer? Drop me a comment.

I Love Roses

At my old house, I grew numerous roses in the garden. They have been one of my favourite flowers. However, where we live now, they don’t survive. This area is known as a ‘frost pocket’ by the local farmers, and the roses rot in the damp cold during the winter. So although I have planted numerous roses, none of them have survived.

However, my sister gave me six rose bushes late last winter when she was moving and leaving her garden behind. I planted them all when the weather warmed up. Since then, two have died, two have kind of stalled, just sitting there, but these two have gone crazy. I finally have roses again! Yay!

The red one is lovely, but no scent. The pink one has bloomed for months now with a beautiful perfume. I’m so pleased.

5 Star Review — Ms Grayson has created a fascinating new world with a lot of the same old problems. Sci fi and fantasy rolled into one with a sure hand and enormous imagination.

Flowers of the west coast

The flowers are budding like crazy in my garden. In the front are peonies, next are the foxgloves. We loved to play with these as kids, used them for swords, or put a pod on the end of each finger and pretended we worked magic with them. Behind those are phlox. It grows wild all over the place and I leave them to seed in the garden because they fill the empty spaces with their beautiful pink to purple flowers and lovely scent.

What is blooming where you are?
