Summer at the Lake

Everything is beautiful down here. Even on rainy days one can sit on the porch and breath the sweet clean air. Here I am, caught at the dock, in the pouring rain.
 

We now have steps to the lake,which is a big help. We spend many mornings drinking our coffee on the new dock and many evenings watching the sun set.
 

My garden is doing well. We have had radishes, broccoli, jalapenos,green onions and lots of fresh herbs.
 

We had fun over Memorial Day.Paige, Sarah and Aaron stopped by with Uncle Gene.
 

 

Brent, Annie and Seth fished.
Edison caught some fish with Levi's help.

Liza Jayne loved the water and playing with shells.


Boat rides were a hit.


















I have started two different flower beds. They are outlined with rocks from the lake.









I hope to add a few perennials each year, till it is blooming from spring till fall.















I really miss my rose garden from the other house, so Phil made me a flower bed along the drive. I have planted Knockout roses there. They are still quite small but hopefully will double in size in a couple of years.
