Love this, Sylvia. I think you would like a friend of mine's blog, The Observant Gardener. Will send you the link. And will hope to stop by and see you when I am spending a few days in Maine later this month.

Thank you, Corey! So glad you enjoy the posts.

Wayne stopped by yesterday. I had a million things to do, so I saw him only briefly. But he and Steve went out to get fried clams for lunch. They had a good time, by all reports!

And your internal story noticing a deer at a neighborhood yard sale was delightful, too.

Thanks, Sylvie.

When the deer are in my yard I go out and talk to them. I tell them to stay out of my garden. They just stand there looking at me. No fear. In one way, that's sweet. In another way, not so much!

My hydrangeas have also been so lushly full of blossoms this summer! As always, I love your writing and storytelling. Keep ‘em coming, and thank you!

Thank you, Irene! We were at a garden party this afternoon and the hosts had some amazing hydrangea cultivars. Beautiful!

I enjoyed reading this so much that Diane came in and said, “What are you smiling about?” In addition to your good humor and great writing, I appreciate your tenacity.
