Long Time Absent

 I was surprised to see that the last time I posted here was the end of May!  I had some health issues and all my energy went to keeping things running here as smoothly as possible, which I did successfully!  Now that I'm feeling more normal I will be able to post more regularly.  I was, however, taking pictures and writing my little ditties on them as I was able to manage.  So this is a 'catching up' post.  I hope you enjoy my pictures from June and July which is ending this weekend already!

My patio often draws me outside in the morning.  The chairs are old and worn looking, but it is a peaceful place to start the day.
This is a picture of my husband and our girls taken on the beach at Seaside Heights, NJ many years ago on a springtime weekend away.
These are zucchini blossoms and we have successfully harvested a few small yellow ones from our front porch potted garden.  It's the first year all the plants have yielded well, we also have cherry tomatoes, patio tomatoes, eggplant, and green peppers.
The clematis are also doing quite well this year, growing along the ramp on the front porch.
This year the deer left my lilies alone and we had many blooms in the space between our driveway and the neighbor's.  Ours were the last to bloom on our street, I'm not sure why unless we get just a tiny bit less sun than they do down the hill.  It was lovely while it lasted!
