It was nice to take pictures today because the sun isn't shinning... Hope we get some more rain today... we still need it. You know how long it takes for the lawn to turn green again after its been almost brown... so thats what we are hoping for~~~ a nice green lawn again.
We had a nice morning, Leo got his lawn mower fixed after getting another part last night. Now it's like new again so he will have to wait I suppose to get the new one he was looking at. :) I did my regular house cleaning and laundry today and then had time to play ... so I took pictures and entered them here for you too see... It takes so long this year to get a picture of the humming bird. It seemed they were more friendly last year. maybe its because the dogs were out too. I will still keep trying though until I get a better one... I think Iam trying too hard and moving the shutter too much. You really can't get fancy taking a hummingbird picture as they are too fast and they are moving all over the place too.. It can be done and I hope I will again this summer.
I have been reading Harry Potter and am on chapter 7..... 31 chapters all together so it will be awhile before I finish... still haven't gotten into it really. I usually only read after supper on the porch. Can't sit still before that usually. I tried today but then I went to get my camera to take pictures... think I will go to the store now... hope you like my pictures, Sandra

Hi Sandra,
We have had about 3 inches of rain the last 2 days. Nothing today, but at least we had a breeze, so it didn't feel too hot. Hummingbirds are hard to photograph, but it is sure fun trying. I picked up the new Harry Potter book, on Monday...haven't had a chance to read it yet. Hope you enjoy your weekend. Nascar qualifying tomorrow, in Pocono. And Jimmie Johnson has to start with a back up car, because of a crash during practice. ttfn. ~Deborah
Yes I can see the hummingbird. They are so pretty. We haven't seen any this year.
Your daylilies are lovely. Ours are finished for the season. Now we have hibiscus, butterfly bush, bee balm and some mums that are blooming. The turtleheads are just starting to bloom.
My grass is sooo brown, the only thing green is the weeds...We do need that rain , but I want to get the house painted and they can't do that in the rain either....
Those hummingbirds are hard to catch in a picture, I know I've tried ! Beautiful flowers you have ! Take care and stay cool - 'On Ya' - ma
What lovely pictures !! Glad the mower is fixed and you don't have to buy a new one! I love to read in the evenings too... have been reading the longest book ever... "Crime and Punishment" and it's just very slow going... Hugs,
Lisa
