Garden Stuff

 Here's a first attempt to spend a quiet afternoon by the computer, as it's supposed to start raining soon.  I'm really enjoying sitting out in the garden in the mornings and the first thing I do is ride around sand get some pictures.

When I pull out onto the deck in the morning this is my view, with the Peonies adding a lot of colour.

I ride down onto the deck and toward the patio.  I feel surrounded by all the growing flowers.

These are the seed pods of Sweet Cicely, delicious to chew on when they are fresh. They have a slight licorice taste.

The Pinks are tiny but mighty.  They are the most fragrant plants in the garden right now.

We have our first tomato flowers.

And I found a single stem of light pink Columbine, growing off by itself.

Finally I was out front early one day and got a more complete shot of our beautiful white Clematis.
