96 DEGREES!


Buster says, "It's too hot for May!" I agree with him.



My pink lilies will be blooming too soon. I would like for them to brighten up the garden in June, otherwise, things will look too green. My garden has many perennials that bloom from March/April on into November, if the weather is "just right".

Here are some wild roses that just started blooming yesterday. I transplanted this start from the family farm when we moved here. However, I thought it would be red/orange like my grandmother's bush and I must have dug up the yellow root, because they've always been yellow in my garden! This bush gets very little attention. However, it looks like a lot of winter kill is showing, so when school is out next week, I'll get to trim it back a little bit.

Hi Marilyn !
I can't believe how hot it has been !
Thanks for stopping by my blog....Yes, I shop in Fort Collins or Loveland....we have quite a bit of stores now :o) I really would like to go to Denver but, it is so far (I live almost up to the Wyoming border - about 1/2 an hour from Fort Collins - and that is driving at 75 mph with no stop lights or signs, lol !)
The camera I am using I found on HSN for about $200 bucks - it is a Fuji Film SLR - I love it ! I bought it for my Hubby as I am saving for the new Canon Rebel (which is about $1000 - with just a basic lense....) Look at my teapot in a suitcase for some excellent outside pictures..I was really pleased for a $200 camera......
Hugs ~ Kammy

Hi Marilyn,
Buster is such a cutie! Yes, it's been pretty hot here in NJ, too. Looks like you will have some beautiful lilies soon, and I love that rose bush!

Love your photos. :)
