    My time outside has been very little...mowing the grass in between the rain and the cool mornings...down to 47 last night...I hope we get what we call an "Indian Summer" with nice weather again..

    Great looking blooms Sherry. I really like your Sedum...it looks like it has red foliage? My Glad's haven't bloomed yet but they have buds. Those Zinnia's are pretty :)
    It's been very cool here too Sherry. We've hardly had summer weather at all this year and it's already feeling like fall weather.

    Good looking flower picts. I also like the color of your sedums. We've had cool weather also here Mich., middle 50's during the day. They say we should hit high's of 70's again this next week. Maybe this will be our indian summer.

    Lovely flower photos Sherry. The Angels Trumpet is beautiful. I think our summer is almost over here as we have been told by the weather man that autumnal weather is due this week.

    Lovely photographs Sherry. White flowers are a favourite of mine so you can, no doubt, guess which plants of yours I prefer. :-D

    I too love that red leafed sedum. Very pretty. I enjoy seeing your glads. They make such a pretty statement in the yard and as cut flowers.

    Hello Sherry,
    Your pics are as gorgeous as always. Those white glads with a touch of pink are pretty darn nice, I must say!
