The July sun is relentless, yet hope blooms in my garden.
Flower details and budding veggies thrive alongside wild thymes and vibrant shrubs.
This midsummer canvas keeps me dreaming…
These are all fresh blooms and growths from my garden and wild bushes from our surroundings


















the supervisor scaring off the goats!
Happy Wednesday, everyone!

To think, only when you last commented on my WW did I see the mention of subscribing to this blog. What? I was, wasn’t I? WP decided to kick me out, I guess.
These are absolutely stunning, CNL!!
xoxoxoxoxo
Thank you, dahlin CNL! I know you were but I’ve noticed that WP does this when one’s not very ‘active’! I can’t believe it’s been two months from this post! Life…
Sending hugs and love and xoxoxoxoxo
The nerve of the WP bots, tell you what!!
Hugs and love right back at ya! xoxoxoxoxo
I know! With ai we’re just becoming obsolete!
many hugs back and love …real ones! 😉 xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo
We are dammit. Lotsa real love and hugs!

A pleasant violet cast washes over your first and next-to-last image. Keep on dreaming.
Sometimes I pinch myself! 😉
Our July has also been relentless. (I’m not a fan of hot & humid) … still walking a lot – but with picky hours. Cheers to the beauty of the garden. Yamas!!!
Hot and humid is a bad combination! At least here we had a couple hot days but with winds blowing.
Thank you, Frank! Cheers to walks!
Yamas!
Wonderful and painterly Marina – your garden inspires
Ah, thank you so much, Laura. xo
Several of these could be in corp. boardrooms, tech offices etc. stunning!
Corp. boardrooms and tech offices would probably hang them as alien landscapes! 🤣
Thanks, my friend! Have a great weekend!
I’m serious. Nothing wrong with it! Lot’s of artists would love to have work like that but they just don’t have eye, the talent or the polish. 🧑🎨🎭📸 🙂
Ah, you are TOO kind! Nothing wrong with it indeed! Just mentioned it because people in businesses are getting more and more detached from the environment. Thank you, my friend for those kind words.
Ah I see. A certain titan who runs an online retailer and just got married might be a good example! Or another who wants to inject chalk into the atmosphere to stop global warming. Agreed! 😄
😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Wonderful, Marina. So pleased to see your garden.
Thank you, Tish! A lot of work to be done but it’s a start! 😉
a delightful post – truly beautiful colours.
Thank you so much! 🙏🤗

Oh, these are all gorgeous, Marina, but I love that first photo! And the goats are cute! But Hera is the supervisor… Lovely, my friend! 💜💕💜💕💜
Thank you so much, Lauren! That one was such a hopeful canvas, So glad you liked it. Of course, the supervisor has a job to do! 😉
Happy Thursday, my dear friend! xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo
Oh, the plant life is incredible! Does your paradise smell as good as it looks?
It is, isn’t it?! I can tell you that sometimes the scent is much stronger, especially from the thymes!
Beautiful post. I love the Lavander Mist shots. The goats are cute.
Thank you, Tim! It was quite strange and beautiful to see. Yes, goats are sweet!
Such beautiful colors ❤
Thank you very much, Vicky!
How beautiful… a paradise made and being appreciated.
Is that gnarly tree the olive tree?
Thank you for sharing this Dahlin”!
GOATS!
A goat may roam from dusk to dawn,
But Hera’s work is never done!
xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo
Awww…. how beautifully said, dahlin and I love Hera’s poem!
Yes, it is an olive tree.
Hera sends buckets of slobberies!
