I'm Still Here...............

Yes, I'm still here, just not much blogging going on, but I have been reading everyone else's. So don't think I not paying attention, I'm watching and reading all about you that I follow. Everyone seems to be having a great Summer, I mean really could this weather be any better, I don't think so! I was looking thru past posts and saw that I have never posted any pictures of areas around Beech Street Gardens, it has always been flower portraits. So Friday morning I got up early and took a few. Enjoy!!!!

Do not look at the browning grass, if I had my way there would not be any to turn brown.....

Bloom Day at Beech Street

It has been a while since I have posted anything so why not make it a Bloom Day. It is even the first one for Beech Street Gardens, by the time I realize that Bloom Day is here I have nothing prepared..........The gardens are really coming to life, but actually there have been plants blooming here for the last couple of months.
I was able to get out and do some work and take photos in the gardens on Wednesday which was a great treat. The day was dry and warm, down right awesome! Had to take off my jacket and sweatshirt, got a little toasty. Had the pleasure of doing lots of clipping, pruning, and raking, it was a feel good moment, "I don't think a lot of people would call it a feel good moment." Anytime to get outside to me is a feel good moment..........Best flowers in the gardens right now all are the Hellebores, they are my favorite this time of year.





















IT'S SPRING IN PORTLAND!
