MORNING IN THE GARDEN




Welcome to my Garden and I invite you to join me for a few peaceful and quiet moments.  NO TALKING ALLOWED today....just solitude and the sound of the birds flying in and out of the garden looking for food.....


I have asked Mr. Jeremy Fisher to please just whisper "if he must" as he so likes to chatter on....



Much hotter today - the last day of spring - we have been having temps in the 90's which is unusual so early in Colorado!  The sky has smoke rolling across the mountains from those terrible wildfires.

Under this tree it is still dark in the early morning so let's sit here.

    Good afternoon Bernideen,
    Your tea table is just lovely. The soft pink roses and ivy on your pretty china remind me of a perfect Summer day! Such a lovely set! Thank you for sharing and coming to my party. Hope you have a delightful Summer, my friend.

    Blessings,
    Sandi

    Beautiful flowers in the arrangement. We've even had the smoke and haze out here on the eastern plains from the fire west of Fort Collins. My mom lives 20 miles east of FC and says she hasn't seen blue skies since the fire started. It is so sad. Hope the firefighters can slow it down.♥♫

    Your post is lovely, Bernideen - and I adore your china set - it belongs outside for a garden tea for sure!

    The garden is a joy to hot days have a place with shade. My morning tea I take always in a place in the shade. To sit and listen and watch everything that happens in the garden is meditative and relaxing. I wish you a great week! Zinnia

    Hi Bernideen,
    what a gorgeous flower bouquet have you arranged. It looks like an old master painting. I guess, those wonderful flowers are from your garden. Mr. Fisher smiles because he know that his garden is so beautiful. And I am trilled with your china pattern - Ivy and Roses, never seen before. Thank you for sharing your wonderful garden tea and for hosting this event.
    Best greetings, Johanna

    Hello Bernideen
    Such a pretty table and bouquet of flowers. When it's not raining here, it's over 30 degrees C so no photos in the garden. Your little spot always looks so cool and cozy.

    Hello, Bernideen! Just stopped by to say 'hi' and have a cuppa tea, too! Mine was taken on my front porch...I decided to get a bit patriotic, too. I always adore all your beautiful flowers in your garden!! Mine have struggled, with the high heat and humidity and watering daily has been a requirement. I hope you are all safe and sound, as I read about the fires you mentioned. Blessings!
