Hot Summer Days!

Mid week 6 of this journey. Its been hot!!! hot and humid. Makes getting on with things somewhat more challenging. Finally got my new greenhouse assembled and attached to the side of the house. Quite an undertaking, but this birthday present to me is finally done. Getting back to my Mother Earth persona I think! At any rate, I did complete a nature study today sitting out in the shade with Mom. She seems to be sleeping more during the day, but she loves the heat. I have become quite fascinated with the diversity of leaves. Every one seems to be unique. If only we humans could be as creative as the Great Spirit. When I stop to look (this is quite an important step for me since I always seem to be in a rush to get things done or on my way to get something) I feel my self becoming quite peaceful. I think that is why my garden is so important to me.Things that grow from tiny seeds just blow me away. Creativity takes on new meaning.

Just in case I forget, sweet potato vine, coleus, Rieger begonia and one unknown species.
