yesterday it RAINED, and cooled off for a while!  it was fantastic, and i went down to the dock to get pictures of the storm rolling in.

i planted four canna lilies in pots on the dock, and i’m excited because two of them are blooming.  because she takes so much better care of her flowers than i do, amy has some GIANT blooming cannas all around her yard.  also she started them much earlier than me this year.  she said it just takes time, but i feel that she does something special and magical to make them get so tall and lovely.  plus i think maybe they’re a different kind because the leaves of hers have dark leaves.

i should take some pictures of amy’s fabulous flowers sometime.

i hope your monday goes well.

ok then,

mrs. hughes.
