The gardener busy taking care of the mountain laurel while others fill the hummingbird feeders and prepare the garden for the newest member.
A red lily which we hope will bloom soon and add some color to the garden since we're quickly going into the yellow phase and neither one of us or the hummingbirds are big yellow fans. Unfortunately it seems that we kept buying yellow plants and it didn't dawn on us till it was too late they were all going to bloom at the same time.
Wintergreen which grows all over the side yard under the pine tress. It smells wonderful when you crush the leaves.
Hard to believe that this picture was taken in the side yard under the pines. The rock is pretty rustic looking and the wintergreen loves the acid soil and the shade.
Now for something completely different. The curling club. In the summer? Absolutely.
Why? Because they have horseshoe pits and horseshoes for Thursday night games and Tues morning games if you're in town and know someone that's a member! Not as cool as curling (in so many ways), but its fun.
Ahhhh, too soon everyone will be back inside curling again in the cold, dark winter nights. We definitely need to be outside as much as possible while the weather is good. Today was one of the clear, sunny, breezy days you come to Maine for and as always
we wish you were here with us to enjoy it.
