It rained today ... five minute sperts at a time throughout the day... sometimes the rain was hard with drops large , others were softer spoken with the light scent ...Beautiful..
I stayed inside and watched three movies in a row, took a nap and it was dinner time...man that was rough... 
I ventured outside a little while before dark and saw this...One year it took for these babies to bloom, look at them now...
the little boy was a gift from my mom.
The dog of our yard, an ivy topiairy, the grass, mint and strawberry beds in the background, the succulent all a blush, love walking up to see what else has bloomed..
Salvia and Zenia surround Momma Dragon ...I hope they re-seed for next year...
Walking down to Iris Alley and the sweet surprise of the Myrtle in bloom...Caught a bumble on a dalhia
and ...
Then I remebered the pineapple ....
ENJOY
