Thanks for the delightful flower images. The only thing better would have been to walk through the gardens with a friend.

Beautiful garden filled with vibrant blooms. As always, you captured them nicely with your camera and your words, Mickie.

I was so glad with your visit. Things are rather hectic here and sometimes I can’t catch up commenting, but you’re always in my heart as one of the earliest Friends. Stay cool.

Just finished commenting on "Sweet Nothings" and Kansas caught my eye in your comment. I'm a Kansas girl too and love visiting other Kansas bloggers. How are your flowers staying so beautiful in this horrid heat?????Mine are sad. We are trying to keep the tomatoes alive although. Will be following you.

What a range of colours (colors!) and shapes.

A zoom lens and a metal boat give you a bit of courage when there are crocs about!
