Evening all, I have been away, at Bonnies. I am usually in Buffalo at this time of year with DH to visit his mother for her birthday.
We have a birthday everyday from the 7th to the 10th with my family. Joes mom, Greta, is usually spoiled by me every day with breakfast served and lunch cooked, her gardens tended to and a dinner at a Chinese restaurant. This is the first year in almost 8 years I couldn't go. The tickets were three times as expensive as last year. All the family went last year so that was good.
Bonnie came to stay here for a few days and then I went to her place for a day. Her brugs are awsome, as well as the rest of her Garden.

Lovely 4 o clock, neener, I will send you some of mine, I have white, yellow, pink, salmon, two toneds and fragrants.
There was no rain here while the storms were going everywhere else, but after watering today, it just thunder dundered and even hailed a little.

Charles Grimaldi finally bloomed for me the first time in two years, after being ate up all the time by worms. He did have 4 buds, but two fell off in the last wind storm. Poor Guy
While in the wilderness with Bonnie, we found oodles of the Gaura ( Pink) growing wild with oodles of white ageratum, and really nice purple iron weed .
