This past weekend at the cottage was a variety of weather patterns...
Sunny...hot...humid...cloudy...windy...still...rainy...
But...
Through it all...
The Black Eyed Susans my friend Devon brought me...
Are flourishing...
Beautiful blooms...
Vibrant colour...
Thanks Devon!
Once I get them planted in a suitable spot...
I will think of you...when their pretty faces show up in late July♥️
As always...
My precious Begonias...
Continue to put on a show...
They are certainly the never ending bloomers!
If you have never had them in your garden...mine are all in baskets!
I highly recommend them...
I always bring a few inside for the winter...
Sometimes they flourish...sometimes not...
But...always a show stopper...for sure!
We spent 3 1/2 days at the cottage...
Saw every weather pattern known to man!
Humidity...tremendous winds...to no wind!!
Watched lightning across the Lake in New York State...and very dark thick clouds...
I have pictures to share later...
How difficult to sift thru pictures...
And find just the right ones to share...
My Sunflowers, White Phlox and Squash flowers are incredible...
All my kids and Miss V visited on Sunday...
There was a huge downpour, and we all ran for cover...
After the rain...the mugginess continued...but we did see the sun come back out...
And enjoyed another sit on the beach deck!
*******************
Hope you all had a great weekend...I know it is Tuesday already!
There was a huge weather sysytem moving thru yesterday...
Flooded a few major hwys down Burlington way...
The Burlington Skyway was shut from Thursday afternoon until last night...
Coming from Niagara to Toronto...
This skyway connects over the Hamilton harbour....1000's of people use this every single day...
It is on our route to the cottage...the inconvenience of it being closed, added about 1/2 hour to our trip...
It seems a DRUNK dump truck driver, had his dump part raised, and hit scaffolding on the skyway!!!
None seriously hurt...but...what an idiot!!
I think we should all be given his home address, so we can all go and give him a big old "boot to the head," for displaying such asinine behaviour!!
I hope they throw the book at him...the repairs will be very costly, not to mention the 1000's of people he inconvenienced...
Climbing down from my soapbox now!
Enjoy your day....
Still expecting more rain here today...
Cheers! :o)
