Off to Maine.

7-18-16 VERMONT: I finished the rockers and they look pretty good back on the terrace. They make the little table that they share the terrace with look dingy so I’ll have to do that one too.

We are off to Maine to visit Ken and Carol. Here is catch-up on recent pix.


Delphiniums are 6 feet tall with vibrant color.

Bee balm, monarda, will last most of August. We have four shades of red. They are a fav of hummers.

Hybrid daylily offer a variety of colors, petal sizes and shapes and bloom times.

Meadowsweet is a volunteer all over the yard and pasture. I don't think that is a pollinator, but a pollinator hunter, each tuft has one or two of these beetles.

This chipmunk is 10 ft up this honeysuckle bush eating those red berries.
