When it comes to Cape Cod it’s the beaches that get the spotlight. And rightfully, so, because the beaches are gorgeous. But there are lots of other pretty things to take photos of on the Cape, too . . . houses and flowers, greenery and stone walls and meadows like this one. If you really stop and look around, beauty is everywhere.

Find something beautiful this weekend and think of me, won’t you?

Cheers to the last long weekend of Summer 2018! Make it a good one, I’ll catch up with you on Tuesday!

I am quite sure I planted a variety of zinnias. Red, white, yellow, pink. And yet the ones in bloom are all pink. I’m not complaining but . . . what happened to the other colors?!

Well, friends. My annual 2 week summer vacation starts now. Part of it will be spent on Cape Cod and part will be spent at home and that means that at least some of it will be shared with you in real time. I’m not sure when I will be blogging but I promise I will be checking in occasionally.

In the meantime, have fun, take care, and don’t do anything I wouldn’t do. That should give you plenty of flexibility!

I planted this butterfly bush last year and this year it is really starting to grow and I love it. Apparently it’s doing it’s just because I’ve seen a monarch butterfly visiting frequently over the last week. Hooray!

And you know what else? Hooray for the weekend!

How about some pretty pink impatiens to start your weekend off right? Works for me, hope it works for you, too!
