In the spirit of such a beautiful weekend, rather than put up the post I had written about the new Beta Plus books that arrived this past week, it felt much more appropriate sharing some of the photographs I’ve taken of various flowers in our yard this spring and summer.

I love our Kousa Dogwood.

One of our spring rhododendron.

A few of my favorite iris.

Our summer day lilies.

My favorite!

Black-eyed Susan.  They make me think of our family camping trips in the Adirondack Mountains.

Have a great weekend everyone! I started mine by getting up at 3 AM this morning and going striped bass fishing. The sky was so clear and the moon so bright, I felt I could see from here to Portugal – and the surise was breath taking . (And I caught a few stripers, too!)

Cheers,
