Thursday evening...
Just enough time to check things out...before the Sun set...
Friday morning brought coffee and English Muffins...with my own peach jam...to the beach deck for breakfast with the early sun...
Saw the Bunny on my way down, and went back for my camera...
He was in no hurry to leave his munching spot!!
My large fluffy Sunflower, has sprouted a few friends alongside...
Hope they wait til next weekend to open up!!
My beautiful Begonias were loving the morning sun...still wet from the night before...
I stole out, and put the sprinkler on for a while!!
They needed a drink♥️
Hydrangeas looking real good...
Cut a few for a vase...
Wonder where the pinkish hue came from??
Perhaps my shirt!!
I was wearing a bright pink t-shirt...
Very strange......
Friday was spent tending to the garden...
Cleaning inside...
Sprucing things up...
For our guests on Saturday...
Love this Coleus with the ruffly pink edges... |
This Fountain Grass continues to put a smile on my face.......every time!!
*******************
Hope you all had a great weekend...
That was some storm yesterday,eh??
Hope you are all safe and sound...
Enjoy your evening....
Cheers! :o)

Love these english muffins with your jam omy!
ReplyDeleteAnd the pictures just beautiful Linda!:)
Hi Gloria....
DeleteIt was a lovely weekend..
Looks like you're standing on the edge of the cliff there. Be careful!
ReplyDeleteYour flowers are gorgeous. I can't even keep up with one house and you're keeping up with two.
Our lake was wild today!
It's ok Martha...it just looks like a cliff!
DeleteThis is true...2 houses....but, we love it! Keeps us young!
Very windy today here too...can only imagine what is going on out at the cottage!
I knew it wasn't really a cliff. :0)
DeleteWe've been up to the Lake enough to know about those concrete slabs.
They're actually kind of interesting.
I know♥️
DeleteWhen we first bought the cottage, there were slabs so big, we could take chairs and sit right at the waters edge...they have become a LOT smaller since then....apparently that was the old foundation for the cottage, before moving it back, after hurricane Hazel....very interesting indeed!
What's interesting is how much of the lake shore is (or used to be) concrete slab. My mom in law must remember those days. She still talks about the old "dance Hall" in Fort Erie. It's long gone, succumbed to the lake.
DeleteApparently in the "old" days, you could drive your car along the beach!
DeleteI can only imagine.....
We have a bed up front that is waiting for Fountain Grass. We never got around to it so now we have to wait for fall.
ReplyDeleteIn that one picture you look like you are on the edge of a ravine. If so, STEP BACK!
Have you looked at the nurseries? They should have them now!
DeleteJust on the beach...don't worry, Birdie!
Those muffins looked delicious! Why did I use the past tense. Because I have just eaten them !!!
ReplyDeleteThe waves were quite large - any reason? It's only a very large lake. Erie sometimes looks Eerie with the waves. Perhaps the winds may whip it up a bit.
Great shot of the bunny - not a 'hare' out of place! lol
And loved the flower photos, as usual.
Are you glad to be back?
Hi Eddie....
DeleteGlad you enjoyed the muffins!
The winds are crazeeeee out there!
We pray for a North wind, so the Lake is calm....no luck this past weekend!
Glad to be home....always....but, I always worry about the cottage when I am not there!
Be back there soon....
Hope you had an enjoyable weekend!
Have you a small boat or craft you can use on the lake. I think you said it was quite shallow? Sounds kind of fun :)
DeleteNo....very expensive,and you need licenses and junk!
DeletePlus...most of the time it is way too choppy....
We have a pedal boat....seats 4....you use your feet, like a bike..it is fun....
Haven't had it out this year... :o(
Now that is what I really meant and sound real fun . . . of course I would thrown you in . . . . lol
DeleteOh no you wouldn't.....believe me!
DeleteNo wet hair! Hahaha!
once again everything looks great I'm sure you had a great time with your friends...:)
ReplyDeleteWe did...at least, I think we did....yes...yes we did! Hahaha!
DeleteOooh...I love the fountain grass! Is it really pink or was that your t-shirt again? haha...It's gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteHa!
DeleteNope....the fountain grass is absolutely pink!
And absolutely lovely♥️
Go and get yourself one!
I always love your flowers and I especially love the fountain grass. I learn so much here about flowers and such. Your own home-made peach jam? Lord, woman...is there nothing you don't make? It wouldn't last 2 days in my house. Try to stay dry. I hear it is raining a lot your way. Here...just cold for this time of year. Hugs, Deb
ReplyDeleteNope...I make EVERYTHING!
DeleteFreezer jam....that is the last jar from last Summer...
I have some new stuff in the freezer!
No rain today...lovely and breezy!
Please may I have a jar of peach jam...and a spoon?!
ReplyDeleteJane x
Oh Jane...you are too funny!
Deletelovely blooms ... no thunder here ... but lots of heavy rain in the early hours and for most of the day ... the gardens did enjoy the much need drink of water
ReplyDeleteYes,they did!
DeleteAnd...much easier than getting the hose out!
Lovely summery times. The bunny is the cutest, and I really love that big yellow begonia; fabulous!!
ReplyDeleteOh yes....I love begonias!
DeleteFun pictures, as always. Love the homemade lekvár (jam).
ReplyDeleteHi Ivy.....neat name for jam!
DeleteWhat language......Swedish?
Your garden looks waaayyyy better in real life than in your photos, which are very beautiful!
ReplyDeleteOk......compliment? Of course it is.....how silly of me....♥️
DeleteIt is beautiful...isn't it!
The sunflowers are beautiful!!!! xx
ReplyDeleteI know!! Love them! My one at home bloomed...the one that Red planted for me!
DeleteNow bunny is very cute.... but..!
ReplyDeleteDon't worry Jessica....bunny has plenty eat all around the property...haven't seen any munching on expensive plants!!
DeleteYour flowers are so beautiful. Linda. That big sunflower is particularly gorgeous and so cheerful.
ReplyDeleteIt is...guess that is why they call them "Sun" flowers, eh?
DeleteThank you so much for stopping by today so I could find my way here. Such beautiful, beautiful photos! I can tell you have a deep appreciation for all the gifts that surround us every day. =)
ReplyDeleteYes, I used all three strands at once on that first basket. It wasn't really difficult at all. Still not as easy as one fat strand that I used on the others, but easy enough. ;)
Thanks again for stopping by. I'll be back. blessings ~ tanna
Hi Tanna....
DeleteThanks for stopping by...hope you will visit often!
Love that bag you crocheted...but I am worried about the 3 strands of yarn...:o(
