Garden Life

August has been unrelentingly hot and humid, which is usual. But neverthless, makes the whole out of doors a sweaty experience, except in the early morning and early evening hours when I venture out to tend and water.

When I do brave the heat and saunter out the front door on even the most mundane chores, I pass by a Stargazer lily that wafts her seductive perfume and lifts my spirit before I scurry back into air conditioned comfort of the house.
