Canada Blooms
This is what I have been waiting for, for so long! Everything is on it's high peak right now, and our deck turned into a garden room, where we spent every minute, enjoying a cup of coffee, relaxing and entertaining.
The nights have been cooling off, so we can sit outside by candle lights with no bugs, chatting and star gazing. Everyday I tell myself, enjoy, enjoy, enjoy. It will be over way to soon and that means I 'll have to wait a long time until my deck looks and smells like this again.
Jetzt ist es bei uns Hochsommer und meine Blumenpracht hat ihren Hohepunkt erreicht.
Lange habe ich darauf warten muessen bis alles so wunderbar blueht.
Mein Deck hat sich zu meinem Gartenzimmer entwickelt, wo ich jede freie Minute mit einer Tasse Kaffee und einem Buch verbringe.
Die Naechte sind jetzt reichlich kuehler und wir sitzten stundenlang draussen bei Kerzenlicht. Jeden Tag sage ich mir, geniesse jede MInute davon, denn es wird nicht lange dauern und dann ist der Sommer wieder vorbei und dann muss ich wieder lange warten, bis es wieder so schoen draussen aussieht.

Been there (lots) and can say that in real life it's even better! (especially with the wine/beer and the company).
Great pictures Schwaby!

Thanks Guys!! The nights sure have been cool lately and it won't be long at all and I have to move all my big plants indoors again! It really has been a beautiful summer to enjoy and sit outside!

Nice pictures Margot, the flowers are amazing. I can't seem to keep the ones my mom planted here in May this spring alive anymore. I am not a good gardener. I might have to get some hints from you. 24 days until we all get together in Fon Du Lac for some windsurfing again, can't wait.

Thanks Uffe! It is only a matter of time now, before I have to re-arrange the living room furniture and bring all my big trees inside again.
Well, one hint to keep your Mom's plants alive: Lots of TLC, besides water and daily fertilizing.
It is my complete sanctuary - besides time on the water! It is an absolute, gorgeous day today. It would remind you of Sweden! Take care!
