A quick trip up the mountain to pick up my sister, gave me an opportunity to visit the wonderful Spring gardens there the tulips are also terrific aren't they? My favorites were these dark purple ones arising from a bed of white... magnificent!

It is definitely Spring here now, so there have been lots of these to enjoy but then I drove "up the mountain" as my friend likes to say where there were many of these and some of this and a bit of that more Spring gardens to enjoy and a birthday dinner to prepare a Jamie Oliver 30 minute meal...very yummy then suddenly it was Father's Day some of these and even some of these as I exited the city and back to even more of these... delightful! Hope you have had a great week, and another one to come!

This photo intrigued me the other day, as there was a shadow over the house which looked a bit like the trunk of a tree behind the house! I love it when the sky goes all inky like this! and these shots of the moon looked quite appropriate at the right time for Halloween! a quick trip up the mountain for another birthday party, brought a trip to the gardens....still clear blue skies mainly... the resident bat population was a little disturbed there early one morning.... as the sun sets over this building, it reminds me of an ocean steamer .... And at the time of going to press here , we are expecting some slow moving storms to come in soon....ah the joys of the weather predictions...
