1. My dear Ptah.........
And this, sweetie, is the downside of the growing season.....

The end of it, when everything dies.....:cry:

But the spring will come again.......when the life is resurrected.......

:hug: :loveya:

I am glad to see you tonight, my dear neighbor.......

3. Isn't that strange........my dear Ptah........
I was feeling a little bit down too.....a little restless.....

But perhaps if we talk together, we can dispel our problems......

I don't have anything really big that's wrong right now.....

Just a couple of small, nagging things that are bugging me...

But between some very cool Billy Joel music right now, and your conversation......

Well, let's just say I am doing a bit better.......:hug: :pals:

4. Mammoth Sunflowers
We had a garden full last summer. They are beautiful and when they are gone? You know Fall is right around the corner. Save some seeds and plant some beauties next spring. Wonderful pics!

12. You Did Great!
what a joy it must have been to see when you went outside. It doesn't matter how much space you have. Its what it means to you when you see them. I am a true gardener. The hedges aren't always cut straight, but I do love to see my plants (of all kinds) grow and change. I think it brings a certain spark to the soul. Enjoy yourself and get some mums for fall. They are wonderful inexpensive plants that will give you color and beauty through the fall. They are also great for container gardens. :) Have a wonderful night.

16. ah but they lasted and gave such pleasure for a while
Did you gather the seeds to dry? We used to do that and then feed the birds over winter.


I've enjoyed your photos so much, brought back memories they did!

Be uplifted, know you've touched many.

:hug:


Spring will come again .. and with that, rebirth.
